I love Art in America. I am an artist and have a college education in fine arts. I have used Art in America as a resource for my education. It is one of the top art periodicals. Art in America is very informative. It has objective reviews of many of todays artist and is very up to date with art openings and current exhibitions all both here in the United States and internationally. The magazine itself is very beautiful in its design and layout! It also gives indepth information on most anything or anybody in the world of art. Including curators, galleries and artists.
 OK

This magazine is okay, but like most major art magazines has far too many ads. However since it's relatively inexpensive, the articles and inspiration you do get from it is worth it most of the time, if you only want to keep up with the traditional art world.
 Not at all what I expected

I like art. I like museums. I like art history classes and art books. So, I thought I'd broaden my horizons and subscribe to a magazine that would surprise me each month. I was worried it might be a bit too modern, but I gave Art in America a shot.
Holy advertisements! The magazine is just teeming with full page ads for galleries and exhibitions. I foolishly thought these were cover pages to longer articles about art, but no, they're just ads. And I don't live in NYC or have a seven figure bank account, so these ads are not really for me.
The articles are buried in between these ads, and honestly, I don't enjoy reading them. I can't put my finger on why exactly. I think it's partly that the articles presuppose a certain knowledge of recent artists, art movements, and so on, because comparisions are made without much explanation. The articles also use a slippery, academic language. Depending on your mood, it may strike you as densely full of content, or devoid of any meaning whatsoever. I'm generally in that latter category.
I guess for me, I wanted to just look at art and read reflections by serious, intelligent people who ask themselves how successful the piece is. Try and figure out what the artist was trying to do, and ask , did s/he do it? Am I convinced? And in my humble opinion, Art in America doesn't do that.
The Best Magazine Ever!!!!!

Great magazine. It addresses what's current in the major art markets, sometimes addresses major modernists figures from recent history, and covers the news in the art/museum business. I like the fact that many types of art are represented.
