Event History
Founded in 1993, The Open Studios Press is a vehicle for facilitating contact between artists and art enthusiasts. Our critically acclaimed periodical, New American Paintings, has featured the work of more than 3,000 painters from the United States, many of whom have gone on to receive international attention. New American Paintings is a juried exhibition-in-print. Each museum-quality issue results from a highly selective juried competition and presents the work of forty painters. We work closely with renowned curators in order to select those artists whose work deserves to be seen by a wider audience. Unlike other art publications, New American Paintings does not discriminate by style or yield to art-world trends.
What Makes this event different?
The publication benefits artists and viewers alike. While included painters receive international exposure, those with an interest in contemporary painting are provided with an invaluable resource for discovering new artistic talent.
