Art ephemera is primarily a by-product of advertising and promotion. At Gallery 98 our main focus is on exhibition announcement cards and gallery posters, but we also have an interest in the advertisements that galleries place in art magazines.
For galleries wanting to advertise, Artforum, with its large international circulation, quality printing and paper, and distinctive 10 ½ x 10 ½ square format, had particular appeal. By the early 2000’s, many Artforum issues had over 500 pages with the vast majority devoted to gallery advertisements.
