It’s time for a cherished annual tradition, recounting the best art I saw this year. These are listed in the order I saw them, they’re not ranked. I’m not attempting to make a definitive list of the best art of the year overall, I never see enough for that.

The Best Art I Saw in 2024
Every December I write a blog post about the best art I saw that year. My previous job used to take me to contemporary art hotspots like the Venice Biennale, New York, and Art Basel Miami Beach.

The Best Articles I Read in 2012
Thanks to Instapaper, I keep track of all the articles I read digitally. At the end of each year, I compile a list of the best articles, essays, and blog posts. This is the first time the list has appeared here, on my new blog (as the first post, no less). Note: These are articlesContinueContinue reading “The Best Articles I Read in 2012”
