Since the launch of our first themed issue in October 2013, the Art21 Magazine has frequently invited a guest editor to bring a diverse array of perspectives to the ideas and artists investigated for each theme. Each guest editor has the opportunity to write for the issue, as well as commission writers to contribute articles they feel will add value and substance.
In the fall of 2014, the Art21 Magazine joined forces with CUE Art Foundation to develop a joint fellowship for emerging writers. Together, the guest editor and the Art21 Educator-in-Residence make each of our issues an extensive, collaborative exploration into how each theme is integrated and applied in contemporary visual art.
