Publisher's Synopsis
50 Contemporary Artists is my response to publishers, critics and curators who systematically regurgitate the same list of contemporary artists every season. Being an Artist, Editor-In-Chief of Artvoices Magazine and the Curator of Artvoices Art Books, I view thousands of artists and their works annually. Arguably, countless artists are intentionally left out of the conversation because of geography, race, religion and or sexual preference. Art and its function and or appeal to the public-at-large should remain subjective. 50 Contemporary Artists appeals to a wide demographic of art professionals and art enthusiasts who are interested in art and artists. The survey features artists of color, all genders, LGBTQ and diverse religious backgrounds. The Art World current trend has shifted to visual artists who have been marginalized and or discriminated against are now being exhibited in galleries and museums Worldwide to a welcoming and exuberant audience. 50 Contemporary Artists survey book assists art professionals and the public-at-large a necessary point of reference to interpret the artists practice and process. This annual book represents the now and next generations of artists to watch and collect.
