Gateavisa was first produced at Hjelmsgate 3 in 1970, as an anarchist magazine, released monthly.[1][2] The editorial collective included anthropologist Thomas Hylland Eriksen.[3] The anti-authoritarian magazine at first covered occultism and mysticism then changed its focus.[4][5] Gateavisa published work from Christopher Nielsen, Stig Sæterbakken and Merethe Lindstrøm.[6] The magazine achieved notoriety in 1981, when it published an article about the stolen rubbish of the two prime ministerial candidates Gro Harlem Brundtland and Kåre Willoch. The issue sold over 20,000 copies.[7] Between 1987 and 1988, the magazine was known as Glasnost.[7] The book Alt mulig fra Gateavisa, 1970–1986 (Everything possible from Gateavisa, 1970–1986) was published in 2020 to mark 50 years of the magazine.[8]
