John Bowstead (27 September 1940 – 12 April 2020[citation needed]) was an English artist and lyricist.
In 1962 Bowstead exhibited at the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA),[1] as part of the exhibition Four Young Artists alongside David Hockney, Maurice Agis and Peter Phillips.[2] In 1963 he was one of three artists to receive an "Honourable Mention" in the John Moores Prize.[3] The same year, with fellow Slade painters Terry Atkinson, Roger Jeffs, and Bernard Jennings, he formed the art group "Fine Artz".[4] From 1965 he was part of the Light/Sound Workshop at Hornsey College of Art until its demise in 1968.[5]
He co-authored, with Jeffs, The Archigram magazine (1961–1974). In the magazine he self-advertised a 'John Bowstead and Friends' multi-media event for the Gulbenkian Theatre at the University of Kent.[6][7] In 1970 he wrote the lyrics for a musical called "Oh Flux!" with Allan Clarke (lead singer of The Hollies) which also played at the Gulbenkian Theatre.[8]
