Description

EPISODE 33 of 'All About Art': Interview with Holly J. Black, Managing Editor of Elephant Magazine and Author of 'Artists on Art'
In this episode, I sit down with Holly J. Black, who published her first book 'Artists on Art' with Laurence King Publishing earlier this year. Holly has over eight years of experience editing and producing content across print and digital media, with excellent knowledge of the arts sector – from national institutions to contemporary galleries. She started off as Editorial Assistant of Art Quarterly, the magazine of the Art Fund, and has since then written for The Art Newspaper, Wallpaper* Magazine, Sotheby’s, and the Museums Journal to name but a few. She is now Managing Editor of Elephant, a leading arts and culture magazine that covers the international art world with a focus on emerging artists, designers, and photographers.
In this episode, I ask her about her career as an arts writer, and we delve into the process of writing an arts book. Listen in to hear me ask Holly about how she defined her audience, what her writing approach was, and how she overcame self doubt. We also talk about what her role as managing editor entails, and what you have to keep in mind when writing about art!
