Contemporary Voices by Olivia SandSince 1997, the London-based Asian Art Newspaper has been covering monthly the world of Asian and Islamic art. Each issue features an interview with a contemporary artist, providing the reader with the opportunity to discover an artist through his own words and not through the lens of a curator, an art historian or a dealer. The illustrations allow the reader to have a clear understanding of what the artist's practice and vision are about whether dealing with painting, sculpture, installation, photography, performance, video, film or music. "Contemporary Voices" compiles some of these interviews, covering the Asian and Islamic contemporary art scene, including internationally acclaimed as well as emerging artists.
