 Froma All I've Read November 20, 2005

Although I have yet to subscribe to Aperture, what I've heard and what little I've seen advertised in one of Sally Mann's famous publications is enough to arouse my interest, and I can't wait to partake of a first issue of 'Aperture'. Feedback from other members is always anticipated and welcomed.

Aperture is indeed the preeminent art photography magazine, and consistently has enough good material to warrant a subscription independent of its clout. Although ostensively devoted to art photography, many of the spreads are essentially photojournalism.
If you are primarily interested in just art photography, and can subscribe only to one magazine, I would suggest "Blind Spot".
 Joyless Art July 2, 2003

This magazine is full of ART (sound of trumpets here). The photographs are unfailingly serious, moody, joyless affairs. There is no room in its pages for smiles, love, or happiness.As an example, the 50 year retrospective in 2002 had at least three photographs (all technically excellent) of bodies and one of an amputated foot (also technically excellent). Tucked in one corner of one montage was the only smiling face in the entire two issues of the retrospective. So, if you like your art dark and depressing, subscribe. I'm looking for something a bit brighter.
