50 YEARS of ART PAPERS

ART PAPERS will conclude operations at the end of 2026, at the legacy organization's 50 year anniversary. 50 YEARS of ART PAPERS will serve as a testimonial and artifact of the organization’s singular contribution to art criticism and print media.

50 YEARS of ART PAPERS tells the story of 5 decades of independent, artist-centered, and artist-produced art criticism, offering some of the most significant texts from the magazine's history - texts that were timely, timeless, or ahead-of-their­ time. 


By tracing the work of ART PAPERS—the longest-running nonprofit art magazine in the USthis book captures the unique perspective of this geographically marginalized but culturally central publication as it grew into an internationally distributed, globally engaged publication.
