Magazin’Art would like to welcome its readers new and old to its Fall 2005 issue, its 69th edition. For those of you who are new to Magazin’Art we are pleased to inform you that it is Canada’s largest art magazine, fully bilingual, with 40% of its editorial content in English. Once again the Fall edition has hit 200 pages, covering Canada’s best artists from coast to coast. Magazin’Art has a readership of 52000 and a press run of 14000 has built its success through its superb colour reproduction of Canada’s best artists.

In this issue John Meyer looks at the magical world of Joannus Boots, and Martin Murray examines how sculptor Nicola Prinsen captures the intimate connection between man and beast when each recognizes the other as a fellow traveler.

In some ways this issue of Magazin’Art finishes off some unfinished business. Our two-part series on Haida art concludes by looking at its future and Marilyn-Ann Ranco finishes her look at the world of pastels.

As well, Noel Meyer looks at the work of H.E. Kuckein, one of those few artists that are recognized by almost every other artist as an inspiration and Martin Murray asks in our editorial, “Why can’t we be more like the Italians.”
