A quality magazine (2004-08-04)
Art & Antiques is a classy magazine that covers art news, ADAA-member galleries, auctions, and fairs, as well as provides in-depth articles on emerging artists and trends in the art world–past and present. It strives to both educate and entertain readers within its pages. Although it advertises for what some may consider "less than perfect" or "lower echelon" artists, anyone with business sense knows that the advertising and editorial sections of a magazine are separate…just because a publication runs an advertisement doesn’t mean they support or endorse it. Art & Antiques definitely does the best it can to find a balance between sounding snobby and sounding like an high school art teacher.Should be titled "People & Personalities" (2002-01-15)
Compared to "Art & Auction," "Art @ Antiques" is fairly breezy and superficial. Too many articles profile wealthy socialite collectors or handsome artists whose work is mostly decorative–in the Leroy Neiman league. (One annual feature profiles "The top 100 collectors" which is, of course, nothing but gush.)The paid advertisements mostly feature artists of the post-Grandma Moses school. If you want to sharpen your taste and enlarge your knowledge of the art world, this is not the magazine to start with.
