About

Art Show Magazine was created to make the art-show world easier to understand and more useful for the people who sustain it: exhibiting artists, visitors and collectors, and show directors.

Our coverage is grounded in direct observation at art shows, careful research, and conversations with the people who make, present, select, and collect the work. Publisher and editor Neal Nachman also contributes photography to the publication.

Who we serve

• Artists looking for practical exhibiting guidance, application information, profiles, and firsthand perspectives.
• Visitors and collectors looking for shows, thoughtful buying guidance, and better ways to meet artists and understand their work.
• Show directors and jurors sharing accurate event information and insight into selection, curation, and artist communication.

What readers can expect

We publish useful show information, artist profiles and interviews, visitor guidance, behind-the-booth reporting, show reviews, and clear explanations of the jury process. Dates, venues, artwork details, captions, photo credits, and source links are checked because accuracy matters as much as the headline.

Editorial and commercial transparency

Independent editorial coverage, artist-submitted reviews, paid Artist Profile services, and advertising are separate. Sponsored placements are labeled, advertising does not guarantee favorable coverage or admission to a show, and Inside the Jury Room participation does not require an advertising purchase.
