In October 2005 American Art Collector’s premiere issue debuted and revolutionized the art market by previewing exhibitions instead of the industry standard of reviewing the show after it opened. The magazine’s mission was simple—to bring together galleries, artists and collectors before the artwork was sold—and that continues today. We know this magazine would not be what it is without the galleries, artists, collectors and events that have offered their support, so join us over the next year as we visit with artists and gallery owners as well as look back on articles and events that have helped shape this publication.

A Look Back: Celebrating 15 Years of Art

We’ve Got You Covered

Selecting the cover for each issue of American Art Collector is one of our staff’s favorite things to do. We sit down together, review all the artwork that is featured in the magazine and narrow it down to some of the top hits. From there, our design team mocks up the cover options and one is chosen. Let’s take a look back at one cover from every previous year of the magazine, showing you just a few of the highlights. We’ve had some heavy hitting artists with artwork featured including Dean Mitchell, Brad Kunkle, Andrea Kowch, Eric Wert, Daniel J. Keys, Jeremy Mann, Sharon Sprung, John Stobart, Annie Murphy-Robinson, Bo Bartlett, Lee Price, Ron Hicks and many more. —
