A Look Away
-
A Look Away magazine is a high quality, quarterly magazine that focuses on supporting both well known and upcoming South African fine artists, designers, architects, poets, musicians and performance artists.
-
Through it we aim to unpretentiously bridge the gap between the art world and its eager public by providing pertinent information and discussions on the state of South African art and culture.
The magazine was started in 2005 and has grown to be a great success, promoting the arts and reaching a wide and eclectic audience.
The magazine strives to cover all South African art-forms and accepts contributions from all over the country. Artists are invited to make use of this platform to generate interest and increase exposure for their work. As it is a submissions-based magazine, every issue is fresh and unique.
The articles range from very accessible features on highly acclaimed and established artists, to more academic articles by younger artists, architects and designers. We feature interviews with musicians, young actors and directors, and review important, as well as obscure arts festivals and exhibitions (anything really, as long as it is cultural and South African).
All in all A Look Away is an enjoyable read for anyone who is involved in the art scene or even for people who are only remotely interested in South African arts and culture.
A Look Away has made itself indespensible to the South African arts world and has contributed to the industry in a unique and refreshing way.
