なぜ「art-culture.world」サイトは日本のアート界でNo.1なのか？ Why is "art-culture.world" website the No.1 in the Japanese art world?

ART CULTURE | ART-CULTURE.WORLD — ART-CULTURE.WORLD

In recent years, ART+CULTURE has developed into the No. 1 website in the Japanese art world thanks to its precise targeting and its charm, competence, credibility, wit and empathetic attitudes.
The more time passes, the more the question arises as to what purpose art magazines such as Bijutsu Techo or Geijutsu Shincho serve. It also raises the question of where Japanese artists and collectors are supposed to get their educational information from. The editorial team at ART+CULTURE has therefore decided to adopt the obviously provocative title: Why is “art-culture.world” website the No.1 in the Japanese art world?
Japan is very poor in terms of art magazines. One need only look at the magazines Bijutsu Techo, Geijutsu Shincho, ART collectors’ and Bijutsu no Mado to recognise the pitiful decline.
In conversations with Japanese artists, art dealers, curators, and collectors, it becomes clear that ART+CULTURE is an integral part of the Japanese art world. The wealth of information available at ART+CULTURE helps to question, further develop, and raise the level of professionalism in the local art industry.
A few days ago, ART+CULTURE highlighted Japanese collector OKADA Kazuo, who is selling his collection through Sotheby’s. Two weeks ago, Andy Warhol’s works were discussed as collector’s items.
These are all important, topical issues that the above-mentioned magazines do not write about.
Why?
Because almost all of the articles in those magazines are tie-in / tie-up articles. These articles are paid for by the clients as PR texts with pretty pictures.
Statistics have shown why ART+CULTURE has become the No. 1 website for contemporary Japanese art.
One of the reasons is that ART+CULTURE explains internal causalities and global connections in the art industry. The website team works independently, without advertisers, fear or favour.
Over time, ART+CULTURE has developed into an important encyclopaedia for Japanese artists.
In addition to reviews from New York with its own correspondent, each year’s TOP 10 (which can reach as high as TOP 68) provides a helpful reference for gaining a current overview of contemporary Japanese artists.
Furthermore, the winner of the annual JCATP Award is published exclusively here.
