LUCIANO, art magazine is an archival, oversized quarterly print journal and physical gallery itinerary. We bridge critical exhibition dialogues, artist studio spotlights, and local cultural infrastructure across the District and Mid-Atlantic.
While Washington is internationally renowned for its grand federal museums and monumental institutions, the District possesses a fierce, vital, and independent contemporary gallery ecosystem that often operates beyond the national spotlight.
LUCIANO, art magazine was conceived as a permanent, tactile, and collectible record of this creative landscape. Published quarterly with Issue 01 launching in Quarter 1, 2027, each volume presents rigorous exhibition reviews, deep artist profiles, and a definitive neighborhood gallery itinerary designed to live on collectors’ tables and studio desks all season.
Engineered to mirror the physical weight and prestige of international contemporary art journals like ArtReview and Cura.
Oversized European portrait (236 × 300 mm). Provides generous white margins and high-impact artwork spreads.
Clean, squared spine using durable polyurethane reactive adhesive for lasting archival durability.
28 interior text pages on 80 lb. uncoated text stock wrapped in a 130 lb. satin cover card.
Velvety matte exterior lamination that resists scuffs, eliminates gallery glare, and deepens rich black tones.
A balanced 15.6% advertising ratio ensures commercial sponsors receive prestige placement while maintaining uncompromising editorial integrity.
