i wanted to ask for some advice because i'm looking to subscribe to something that will keep me up to date with the art world. since moving away from DC to the land of malpais (huxley reference) i've felt culturally isolated, and i'd like to compensate this with a decent publication.
what i'm LOOKING FOR: -something contemporary, that tells me what's going on today. i'm not interested in articles about the paintings of renoir and where they are doing a traveling exhibition (thought it would be nice to know, ha ha). i'm more interested in current trends, emerging artists, etc. -something that can somehow (somehow! i understand the limitations!) compensate for not being able to go to galleries, museums, etc., for 11 months a year. what i DO NOT want: -something printed in europe where i'll have to pay a fortune & receive it 2 months late (as often happened to me w/ wire mag). -something for art collectors who're looking to buy shit & amass their fortunes. i'd like news and commentary, not buying tips. -something that describes exhibits that i can't see (envy is such a toxic emotion) -- so... art news? art in america? NYarts magazine? something i haven't heard of but should? thank you. my brain will be forever indebted to you. |

Hmm..no google results for Picasso's cover for the first issue of Minotaur (Minotaure) magazine in 1933...bastards.
Used to be here (apparently): http://209.85.165.104/search?q=cache:ODZz2sOgOGoJ:www.martinries.com/article1972-73PP.htm+picasso+%22minotaure%22+1933&hl=en&ct=cln k&cd=10&gl=us Huxley persistently poo-pooed Jackson Pollock. Fuck Aldous Huxley. Little overrated twit. I guess he got on the cover of Sgt. Pepper though...the Peter Principle in action in the realm of philosophy, I suppose. This thread reminded me of SyntheticalY's little "shout-out grouping threads."

Yeah, Giant Robot is so much better than Art Forum, Art News, or Art in America. You're so fucking cool.

I'd say check out Tate Modern's website to see if they sell on the internet. Their bookshop is one of the best ones i've ever been to, if a little pricey.

ARTnews, Art in America, and Art Forum have long histories as being the best. They are all New York-based publications though.
Maybe he wants some parisian mag for whateva reason. ...Or to go to London for a ride on that Tate slide...I know I do. |

You mentioned Huxley in yr post and I've already
commented and although no one will care what I write next, I am still motivated to do so because it's relevant to this discussion on some (admittedly obtuse) level. You see, the thing about Aldous Huxley is he was a Brit and he didn't want New York gaining even more cred as the world art capital with abstract expressionism, so he liked to make fun of it. Which is ridiculous considering that a) he was supposed to be a "metaphysical" free-thinker according to many of his books and (most importantly) b) the guy was legally blind (or just about there) and he fancies himself an art critic! Yet, there he is as the main intellect in a panel discussion in several issues of Life magazine in the early '50s putting down American Abstract Expressionist painters and cow-towing to the lowest common denominator by calling it a sham. I'll write it again. Fuck Aldous Huxley. (He's a) tremendously overrated author, (& a) tremedously overrated intellectual as well. Quote:

(He's a) tremendously overrated author,
(& a) tremedously overrated intellectual as well. Not !@#$%!, Huxley haha. Quote: http://209.85.165.104/search?q=cache:QbJhytHFWTwJ:www.newcriterion.com/archive/21/feb03/huxley.htm+huxley+aldous+%22life+magazine%22&hl=en &ct=clnk&cd=1&gl=us The frustration of Huxley’s natural scientific bent also had at least one malign consequence: a much too uncritical attitude towards fringe and crank sciences, especially those that offered some hint of a connection to the world of the spirit. He was an early enthusiast for the work of Dr. J. B. Rhine of Duke University, which Huxley believed had established the reality of extra-sensory perception. Huxley’s 1954 essay in Life magazine probably did more than anything else to bring Rhine’s “results” (which rested on a misapplication of the rules of statistical inference) to the attention of the broad general public. J. W. Dunne’s “experiments with time,” which involved sifting through one’s dreams for episodes of precognition, got Huxley’s attention. So did dianetics, which was later incorporated into Scientology. Huxley and Maria, his first wife, had three or four sessions with L. Ron Hubbard. ---
