Author Description

Friend of The Artist is a platform dedicated to showcasing the work of extremely talented emerging artists from around the world. Each volume is unique and features a diversity of aesthetics and ideas. Our printed books are curated by experienced jurors, who work together to carefully select the top artists' works. We were very fortunate to partner with The Artistellar for this volume, who is featuring a selection of the artists in an exhibition starting in October 2021. Artistellar is an innovative online gallery platform that bridges the gap between the brick-mortar gallery concept and online art e-commerce. Artistellar was founded by Adele Smejkal and offers a new way of experiencing and collecting art online through curated exhibitions. We are so excited to partner with them for this exhibition and showcase the next generation of artists. Within the pages of FOA's Volume 14, we are proud to feature 51 artists from 11 different countries who work in multiple mediums, thanks to the panel of experienced jurors from around the globe including Adele Smejkal, Angeliki Kim Jonsson, Federica Fiumelli, Nina Blumberg, Sofia Carreira-Wham and the FOA Staff.
