Blau International magazine aims (and succeeds) in being one of the most beautiful art magazines in the world. Tastefully presenting thought-provoking and innovative work, even the advertisements are an artwork in themselves.

On the cover of this 14th issue is work by Lorenzo Amos, a 24-year-old breakout painter who became the youngest artist to stage an exhibition at the Rubell Museum in Miami. Ambition radiates from every canvas this cover star creates, though editor-in-chief Cornelius Tittel questions if he really has what it takes—spoiler: he absolutely does!

Inside this latest issue: David Salle recounts the exact moment Julian Schnabel upended the New York art world overnight; Christopher Rothko reflects on his father Mark Rothko’s enduring connection to Florence and the journey of bringing his work ‘home’ to the Palazzo Strozzi; Andrew Winer discusses how self-referential humour can sit comfortably alongside conviction in conversation with the 83-year-old visionary Bruce Nauman; plus, better grasp Dorothea Tanning’s process of fusing the surreal and the real through an article by her biographer, Alyce Mahon.
