Let's talk about Photography, Art and Magazine

‘Photography’ is a term laden with meaning. Whether we’re speaking about twentieth century film photography or today’s wide-spread digital photo culture, the medium invariably plays the role of everyday documentation, self-initiated hobby, and professional tool. But how many of us would really say that photography is art?

At the same time, the status of print magazines is gradually weakening with the rise of the internet and social media. No small number of publishers have announced decisions to cease print production. Is the age of print media dead?

Photography Is Art, currently the world’s only Chinese-English print photography magazine, is a Hong Kong-based monthly devoted to tackling these questions by exploring and discussing the artistic value of the two mediums. Although a print monthly cannot compete with the speed of the online world, we hope that our deep dives into the ocean of information on photography and art will both nurture and delight our readers.

Since its inaugural edition in January 2018, Photography Is Art has invited esteemed photographers to share their stories on our pages. We keep an eye on local culture by collaborating with Hong Kong artists and practitioners, while also keeping our finger to the pulse of global trends. Searching out and introducing distinctive styles from masters and emerging artists in China and around the world is our primary mission.

Using a statement to name a magazine may not be creative, but it is certainly bold. Add a question mark, full stop, or exclamation mark, and its meaning is immediately changed. Are we being didactic, or ironic? Is photography art? What is art, after all? Let’s explore these questions together, month by month, while meeting the field’s important players and observing the rhythms of this distinct culture. With an open mind and curious heart, let’s embrace the brilliant world of text and image on this journey through photography and art.
