Buzz Publishing, founded in 2007, offers an alternative to
mainstream art publications and a way for lesser known and undiscovered
visual artists to showcase their work to an international
audience.
Through our annual Art Buzz fine art search, we call out to passionate
emerging and mid-career visual artists throughout the world.
Art Buzz, the book, is an annual, full-color, fine quality, large (10"
x 10") format, hardcover publication that is scheduled for release in
January of each year with a vigorous distribution plan targeted
directly to the International Fine Art Community.
Artist information:
Art Buzz, is dedicated
to the appreciation and advancement of contemporary visual art and its
creators. Visual artists of
various media are encouraged to enter this jured competition to be
included and exposed in the next volume of Art Buzz Collection series -
the book. From these entries, the artists' work is selected for
inclusion (or not) based on its merits and impact, not on the artists'
past achievements.
All winning
artists will have their personal contact email and website listed in
the book. All artwork images in the book will be reproduced as
closely as possible to the winning entry that was received for the
competition. Winning artists will also receive a complementary Standard

purchasing a copy(s) of the book at a discounted price.
