There are no fees to apply or participate but selected artists must purchase one of the current book volumes from AFA before becoming published. We generally want to publish artists who support the publication and want to read our content. Artists who are selected for publication must email a receipt or screenshot of their receipt of a purchase from the AFA Lulu bookstore. The artist may purchase either an economical paperback edition or a premium linen wrap hardcover book. AFA books may be purchased at https://www.aedrafinearts.com/hardcover-catalogue

Artist Feature Catalogue articles are published on the AFA website at https://www.aedrafinearts.com/afcatalogue , Substack page at https://aedrafinearts.substack.com , and in linen wrap hardcover book editions.

What is ‘the catalogue’?
The AFA Catalogue is not a magazine but rather a collection of scholarly essays published in a hardcover artbook format as well as presented digitally in a manner similar to an exhibition catalogue. Only prize winners from AFA edition competitions are included in all formats of the catalogue, digitally and in print. The catalogue includes artists who have works in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Artists included in the catalogue have also been critically published by the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Forbes, National Geographic, Financial Times, Newsweek, and The Guardian. There are also quite a few artists in the catalogue who are represented by some of the most respected galleries in the world. AFA editions include notable award achievers such as National Endowment for the Arts and Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant recipients as well as International Photography Awards (IPA) winners.
