Summary/Abstract: In the article I concern a period of Franciszka Themerson’s life when she was a lecturer at two academies in Great Britain: Wimbledon School of Art (1963–1968) and Bath Academy of Art (1967–1968). I display a didactical practice of the painter, putting attention on material outputs of collaborations – the selected issue of magazine “It’s”. The aim of analysis of publishing experiments made by Themerson together with her students is to show relations between artistic, editional and didactical practices of this vanguard artist.
