BOOMER GALLERY MAGAZINE | FIRST EDITION | THE NEW ARTIST
In the last hundred years humankind has seen unprecedented innovations and changes- from skyscrapers to moon landing to social media to human rights to Art. In this very moment in our society everything moves really fast, time doesn’t seem sufficient anymore, artists seem to find their path much harder, the ongoing changes create a need for a continuous state of Transcendence. The aim of this publication is to find out what’s the trend in contemporary art and to create a dialogue between the artists and the viewers. In our first edition we have the honour of presenting 185 artists from all around the world. Their works and biographies are truly amazing and inspiring and we really hope you will enjoy reading it.
