What a fascinating find this magazine was at a thrift shop a year ago. I was about to throw it out when I got a wonderful idea! What if this magazine was still in existence 42 years later? And before I threw it away, what if I did a search for some of the more interesting pieces from 42 years ago and posted them here? Art in America magazine does still exist, since 1913 from what Wikipedia says. I swear it brings back that smell of art rooms everywhere when I look at it. That mixture of paint, pottery, thinners and adhesives. Or like that wonderful community art building north of the Old Market area in Omaha. I really should get a subscription (a 1 year subscription in 1978 was $19.95. Today that subscription is $79.95, and it is coming to a mailbox near me!). This first example from that issue is from Philippe Noyer: “Femme Chez Maxims“
