LOOKING THROUGH the

entries in the student division

of The Artist’s Magazine’s

Annual Art Competition is

one way to assess the psyche

of the next generation. No

surprise that many of the

student works evinced anxiety

about the state of the world;

it was gratifying, however, to

see also signs of a fi rst-class

art education (“Ever

Upward,” page 64).

One picture, replete

with empathy as

well as skill, took our

breath away. The

subject is the artist’s

grandfather as he

lay dying; the art-

ist, Jason Chi-Han

Cheng painted The Crossing

(Competition Spotlight, page

88. while pursuing an MFA at

the Academy of Art Institute

in San Francisco.

Flowers

ritt Chase

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Spring & Fall

Welcoming new artists is

an honor; a pleasure, too, is

studying the past. Jerry N.

Weiss takes a characteristi-

cally brilliant look at the lav-

ishly talented William Merrit

Chase (“Celebrating a Modern

Master,” page 46 and above).

Breaking the barriers

of classical representation,

Catherine Kehoe paints with

bold shapes and electric col-

ors (“Radical Attention,” page

36). Katherine Chang Liu

breaks from another tradition,

that of the workshop demo

(“Inside a Workshop with

Katherine Chang Liu,”page

54). Learn, too, how to

keep collage papers archival

(Ask the Experts, page 12);

to master the color violet

(Brushing Up, page 20), and,

of course, much more.
