Bluejake is a photo blog with a focus on urban landscape and architecture. Jake Dobkin’s images are of New York, and from his travels.
Streetsy art blog has one goal: to host the largest selection of street art on the internet. Sponsored by the Wooster Collective, with Jake Dobkin acting as curator, Streetsy is comprised of a blog site, and a Flickr group – with the Flickr group being available for direct access from the Streetsy site, via the ‘Streetsy Group’ link.
James Wagner uses his art blog to cover art and progressive politics, occasionally observing the connection between the two.
The majority of entries take the form of highly informative write-ups of exhibitions that Wagner has viewed. By focusing less on pure critique and more on highlighting the aspects that have captured his interest, Wagner develops an ideal base from which to contextualise the event in terms of the wider art marketplace.
The Daily Serving team provides wide-ranging coverage including artists, curators, galleries, art shows, schools and residencies, non-profits, and museums. The diverse range of skills the Daily Serving’s team members mean that the quality of writing is maintained, despite the daily deadline and the scope of coverage.
Art Observed first caught our eye as an art blog based in New York, but covering the major art events throughout the world. This seemed counter-intuitive to us – after all New York is the art capital of the world – but the concept was enough for us to get us reading, and we are glad we did.
Being in the middle of such a busy art scene, and being able to look out on art events and scenes elsewhere around the world is clearly a great leveller. Art Observed does a great job of cutting past the hype that those caught-up in could struggle to get past. The result is that we find Art Observed not only regularly identify the most newsworthy events in the art marketplace to cover, but go on to provide incisive coverage.
Graffiti Research Lab (GRL) is a group of artists that experiment with urban-specific technology. Their art blog chronicles these efforts, equipping writers, and artists with ideas on how to enhance their urban communication.
Established in New York, GRL now has a wide community, with groups and websites all over the world, including: Amsterdam; Australia; Brazil; Canada; Colorado; Luxembourg; Mexico; Tokyo; Utah; and Vienna.
In 2001, street art received far less mainstream recognition than it does now. The Wooster Collective art blog was founded to document and preserve art which can be ‘washed away’ at any time. Since then, street art has grown in popularity, and the Wooster Collective has grown to become one of the most effective promoters and exhibiters of street art around.
Winkleman’s art blog is one of the 10 or so highest profile among regular art blog readers.
This is, by some distance, the best art blog produced by an art dealer. If you have not read Winkleman’s art blog before, we strongly recommend a visit.
New.York.Art.Crit is the most expansive art blog we have come across, and we mean this in all senses of the word expansive.
Haber is obviously compelled to write about art, and continuously produces a prodigious quantity of high quality content. Whilst he started his blog with no interest in his work being read by others, we think that he has come to enjoy sharing his thoughts – efforts to make archived entries accessible, a slight shift in writing style, and the recent switching on of a comments facility, all point in that direction.
