Apollo Magazine launches complete archive dating back to 1925
Daryl Rayner: “Exact Editions have enjoyed working with Apollo for well over a decade, and are thrilled to have developed this new online archive for the magazine.”

The monthly magazine is on art collecting, the international art market, and museum exhibitions - widely considered to be one of the world’s most renowned and respected art publications, says Exact Editions.

The comprehensive, fully-searchable digital resource features all 1200+ issues of the magazine. Readers can see the development of the publication, from its founding by art dealer Joseph Duveen and Finnish art historian Tancred Borenius, to Denys Sutton’s legendary 25-year stint as editor, to the present-day art market reporting.

Highlights within the archive include; letters about the emerging surrealism movement from 1926 Paris, the discovery of a Leonardo Da Vinci statuette first reported by Apollo in 1934, John Berger’s essay on Renato Guttuso in 1955, as well as Brian Sewell’s criticism of the Royal Academy Schools in the late 1980s.

Now owned by Old Queen Street Media, Apollo’s complete archive is available to Apollo’s Premium Subscribers (either Print & Digital or Digital only) for individual users and via Exact Editions for institutions.

Edward Behrens, editor of Apollo, commented: “Apollo has curated an unparalleled reputation over 100 years of publication. The magazine’s history is at the core to its unique position in the art world - and it is this history that is so beautifully and effectively reflected in the new digital archive. We are excited to share this with Apollo’s subscribers, as well as institutions across the globe through Exact Editions’ work in the library market.”

Daryl Rayner, managing director of Exact Editions, commented: “Exact Editions have enjoyed working with Apollo for well over a decade, and are thrilled to have developed this new online archive for the magazine. The team have enjoyed curating the vital history of the magazine and expect strong take-up from institutions with significant art and design programs.”
