History [edit]
Published since 1913, Art in America Magazine covers the visual art world, both in the United States and abroad, with a concentration on New York City and contemporary art fairs. Art in America bills itself as the "World's premier Art Magazine."
The magazine takes its readers into the studio with artists for exclusive behind the scenes interviews. Over the years there has been something of a tradition of commissioning artists to design special covers for the magazine. Edward Steichen did one for its 50th birthday; Alexander Calder, Robert Rauschenberg, Roy Lichtenstein and Robert Indiana also created covers. For its 100th birthday the magazine planned special covers by Richard Prince, Cindy Sherman, and Urs Fischer.[2]
