Momus is looking for art writers

Our editors seek out writing that looks critically at contemporary art and circles its relationship to larger contexts. Through editing that is committed, sensitive, and rigorous, we prioritize accessible approaches to art writing and criticism. Momus publishes reviews and features, and welcomes pitches in both categories.
