“WHEN ARTNEWS WAS FOUNDED IN 1902, ITS EDITORS PROMISED TO BE “INTERESTING, UP TO DATE, AND ABSOLUTELY RELIABLE.” 

WE WERE THERE WHEN MARCEL DUCHAMP’S WORKS AT THE ARMORY SHOW SHOCKED NEW YORK; WE WATCHED JACKSON POLLOCK PAINT A PICTURE AND WENT ON TO CALL IT “ACTION PAINTING”; WE ASKED ANDY WARHOL WHAT POP ART WAS (“IT’S LIKING THINGS,” HE SAID); AND WE WERE THERE TO TRACK DOWN LOOTED ART (WINNING A NATIONAL MAGAZINE AWARD IN THE PROCESS), TO SORT THROUGH VAN GOGH FORGERIES, AND TO KEEP AN EYE ON INSTITUTIONAL MALFEASANCE.

WE CONTINUE IN THAT TRADITION TODAY, BRINGING YOU—ONLINE AND IN PRINT—IN-DEPTH AND UP-TO-THE-MINUTE NEWS, AND INCISIVE REVIEWS.”
