Public Art and societies
• are we producing public art that fits well with our cities and our populations.
• who decides what is sanctioned in the public arena now - is it still local government and State Arts departments, or is the corporate sector taking over.
• the Echigo-Tsumari Triennial and the Niigata Land and Water Festivals in Japan show the power of art to impact the public to the extent of changing societal patterns within one decade. Other examples from Australia and other countries – Korea, France, China.
Vol 30 no 4 (December 2010) Editor Stephanie Britton + TBC
December: Colour and bio-art
New science on the visible and invisible colour spectrum in humans, animals, fish, insects throws light on contemporary artistic works, putting 19th and 20th Century colour experiments in printmaking, textiles, light and painting in a new context. Emotional/mood effects of colour, symbolism in different cultures, the gender of colour, industrial, commercial and military uses of colour branding. Illusionary effects, synaesthaesia, art therapy, healing with colours. Printing - the reduction of colour range in raster grid used now in digital processes. The effect of the increase of colour blindness in people today in the industrial world. We will invite writings by artists and scientists as well as art writers.
Writers' guidelines
Artlink is open to a very wide range of writers throughout Australia. We encourage writers to contact us if they are interested in contributing. Artlink rarely accepts unsolicited manuscripts.
Because Artlink is a themed magazine which tries to make art relevant across society, we often need to find contributors who have expert knowledge of subjects outside of the art area who can put the work of artists in a broader context.
Write to or email the editor with your CV and one or two examples of previous published writing plus a list of published articles.
We can provide you with our upcoming themes. We offer $300 per 1,000 words. We expect writers to source the images for articles and liaise with artists or galleries for permission to use the images in the print and online versions.
