ArtReview is one of the world’s leading international contemporary art magazines. Founded in 1949, it is dedicated to expanding contemporary art’s audience and reach. Published nine times a year, the magazine features a mixture of criticism, reviews, previews, opinion, reportage and specially commissioned artworks, and offers one of the most established, in-depth and intimate portraits of international contemporary art in all its shapes and forms. In 2013 ArtReview was joined by its sister magazine ArtReview Asia, now published four times a year, which brings a fresh and exciting new voice to the dynamic and fast-changing art scenes of the Asia region, as well as covering Asian art presented outside of the region.

The ArtReview archive consists of all issues going back to 2006, when the title was relaunched in its present form, as well as all issues of ArtReview Asia from its first issue in 2013. Together, the two titles provide an invaluable resource for those interested in the current era of contemporary art; the ArtReview archive is an indispensable reference for all art students, art historians and other humanities researchers, as well as offering an independent and first-hand research tool for professionals working in galleries, museums and institutions.

In the May issue of ArtReview, Jenny Wu and Allison Young perform close readings on selected works by Amy Sherald, whose midcareer retrospective American Sublime opened at New York’s Whitney Museum of American Art in April, while Martin Herbert explores work by Mario García Torres. Jessica Lanay traces Lingít and Unangax artist Nicholas Galanin’s engagement with Indigenous land rights. Gaby Cepeda speaks with Mexican artist Naomi Rincón-Gallardo, whose videoworks narrate alternative worldviews via characters of various cosmic lifeforms. Fi Churchman annotates George Eliot’s essay ‘On The Natural History of German Life’, which warns of the moral dangers of a romanticised view of the working class.
