Best Of: Year One

Best Of: Year One

August 19, 2010. We’ve reached the end of our first issue year, during which Art Practical went from being an enthusiastically supported idea to an established critical forum for Bay Area visual arts. To mark the occasion, Art Practical’s editors reflect on the wealth of writing that’s appeared on the site, while some of our writers highlight their favorite exhibitions, events, and people from the past twelve months. They had free range to choose their themes; their selections—both singular and recurring—range from the notable to elegiac to the idiosyncratic. It has been a very good year, made possible by tireless work of our editors, the dedication of our writers, the brilliance of our designers and developers, and the generosity of our partners. We hope you’ll join us when we begin Year 2 on September 16, 2010, with the second annual Shotgun Round. Enjoy! - PM
