Welcome all art snobs! If you like to read/think/talk about fine art, current, past & future, you've come to the right place.

Things to post: hot new shows, gallery and museum gossip, curatorial or arts management practices, interviews/features with notable artists, art articles, discussions and so on.

Things not to post: Your own work (unless a portfolio critique request), equipment, blogspam, another artist's work if it isn't tied to an event or relevant article (that's what r/art is for), for-profit project information, commercial advertising or information directing readers to art sales. Ignoring these rules will get you banned.

Rules reminder :)

Today I banned two users, 1 for promoting their own YouTube, the other for linking to their own art sales website through editorial pieces they generated. We will not allow these kinds of posts as they are against our sidebar rules. We may be a quiet and barely-there subreddit, but it's still a special little place for art news :)

Anyway hello everyone, hope you're all doing great. Next week is art fair week in NYC, I already know there's other folks here that are working our asses off too. Good luck y'all!
