2008 marked the inauguration of many things for Art21 and among the most notable was the introduction of our guest blog. Initially every week and now every two, we bring on a new writer—friends and colleagues, and others who come recommended to us—to add new perspectives to our content. We are thrilled to highlight our incredible cadre of writers from across the US and abroad. Click on each writer’s name for an index of all his or her posts. Many thanks to all twenty-four of them for their informative and often entertaining insights!
Interested in guest blogging for Art21 in 2009? Email a letter of interest, 2 writing samples, and relevant links by January 16, 2009 to blog [at] art21 [dot] org.
