There’s an American Art Collectors magazine )I think it’s just called American Art Collector or something close to that) that is very interesting to look at regularly because it tells who is doing what where. It profiles both artists and gallery owners and has lots of pertinent, up to date information. Though not technically an artist business magazine it may be helpful to those doing painting and sculpture. There are also more and more good regional art magazines that give a good picture of what is or isn’t happening locally.

As far as magazines that help you keep up with current artists, I have found that W magazine is surprisingly good about writing articles about living artists. Even though it is primarily a women’s fashion magazine, I have read articles about artists like Chuck Close, Jasper Johns, Paul McCarthy, and John Baldessari.

Thank you for the information. Art Calendar is also at the top of my list. I’m not familiar with The Crafts Report, but will check it out. Another one to add back onto my list is a local publication, Art New England, covering the art scene in this area of the country. I’ll check out the other publications over the next few months to find out what will help me out.

I have been getting “the artist’s magazine” for about a year now. Although it’s is not exclusively about the business of art, I find that, for me, it has a nice mix of aesthetic lessons, marketing ideas, and guides to different mediums and techniques. You can try a couple free issues before you decide if it’s for you. Go to: http://www.artistsmagazine.com
