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
- while pursuing an MFA at
the Academy of Art Institute
in San Francisco.

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.
