The Critical Corner
The Critical Corner articles are reviews and critical
assessments of art works, such as books, musical pieces, performances,
CDs, paintings, art exhibits, etc. We work with authors who have an
interest, background and voracious appetite in art, which has led them
to a refined appreciation of the material within the context of its
peer works, peer authors and intertextual relationships in general,
and who will share their insight with us in these articles.
We do not accept unsolicited material, editorials and opinion pieces
for publication. We also have no interest in material that is
basically an advertisement for a product. However, we're always
looking to strike up relationships with artists and art specialists
who have long time experience and background, to work with us in a
non-commercial environment.
