Featured Work in Studio Visit Volume Fifteen

Even though the Internet offers myriad opportunities for artists to put their work in front of those who might be interested in it, printed matter still carries a weight—literally and figur- atively—that continues to make it the most effective marketing tool for artists who want their work to be taken seriously. Artwork has permanence, so it makes sense that methods of documenting it should share that character- istic. Whether in the form of publications like Studio Visit and New American Paintings, or in monographic catalogs, printed matter works, and I have been gratified to hear how effective this publication has been for past participants.

Well over 1,000 artists submitted work for this edition of Studio Visit. entries came from around the globe and in a variety of media. Our juror, Ian Berry, Curator at The Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery at Skidmore College, spent a week selecting the featured artists. In the end, there were 309 artists selected for inclusion that were split into two volumes, numbered 15 and 16.

Some of the artists featured in Studio Visit are self-taught, while others hold graduate degrees. Some have shown extensively, while others are at the beginning of their careers. However, all of the artists featured in Studio Visit are serious about and committed to their work. So, we hope that you take the opportunity to contact any artist that you feel may be appropriate for your gallery or collection. For your convenience, every artist has contact information provided.

We hope that you enjoy the new publication.
