AAA Journal |
AAA Journal American Abstract Artists (AAA) just finished its fifth journal — American Abstract Artists Journal: On Edge (volume 5). Published in full color for the first time, the journal includes 60 entries, primarily from artists. Five of these artists are recently deceased members of AAA whose work is represented by their own writings, biographies, and reproductions -- Clinton Hill (1922-2003), Ward Jackson (1928-2004), Ibram Lassaw (1913-2003), Peter Pinchbeck (1931-2000), and Beatrice Riese (1917-2004). These artists produced work of the highest caliber and AAA wishes to honor them by reproducing and disseminating their work through the publication of this journal. American Abstract Artists Journal: On Edge (volume 5) gives voice to the community of abstract artists by creating a forum, both for members and the wider community of historians and critics, to present new work and ideas. It opens and expands a critical dialogue, and creates opportunities to examine and evaluate the challenges to artists working in an abstract idiom. AAA's goal is to expose this work within an educational format to a national audience to promote a greater understanding of each artist's contribution. Through publishing critical essays on theory, experience and practice, the journal will present students and professionals with a vital historical resource. This issue will include innovative artworks, original visual projects, critical reflections and studio conversations.
