Hyperallergic is turning 15 this fall. From humble origins as a blogzine co-founded by Hrag Vartanian and Veken Gueyikian, we’ve grown into an influential and beloved online publication that has disrupted the market-driven art media landscape and continues to change the way art is critiqued, reported, and debated. To celebrate this milestone, we’re throwing an anniversary party in Brooklyn on October 9, and you’re invited! |
