Digital Magazine Opens New Frontier in Art Publication and Distribution
BOSTON, Massachusetts, July 15, 2003
With the recent launch of Aspect Magazine, cutting-edge experimental artists finally have a magazine that embraces their mediums. Because the full effect of kinetic art, time-based art, experienced-based art, and installation art usually requires a viewer's presence, traditional print media has proved inadequate in bringing such works to a wider public. Utilizing a multi-media format to showcase these works of new media art, Aspect creates a museum experience in the home or classroom.
"It's a great resource" notes Bernard Toale, Director of Bernard Toale Gallery in Boston, 'the impact to academics and the art community will be immeasurable." For educators, Aspect represents a unique opportunity to teach works of art from an archival, affordable, and easy to use medium. Showing video of artwork replaces the still icon of the slide with more direct, comprehensive documentation of art that incorporates movement, sound or interactivity. Similarly, curators and galleries can keep abreast of artwork from around the world that is re-defining and extending the boundary of new media art.
Aspect Magazine is a biannual DVD publication highlighting 5-10 artworks, and includes in-depth information on the artists. Additionally, an optional audio track commentary accompanies each piece. Aspect Magazine forges a new and vital connection between artists, viewers and collectors of art.
