Beginning in the 1970's, visual artists pioneered Jersey City and created a contemporary cultural community. We sit on the shoulders of the artists and arts organizers in this area who preceded us.
The number of people writing about the arts in our area has dwindled. We started this blog to give local artists and arts writers an opportunity to activate a different part of their creative practice by reviewing fellow artist exhibitions. In turn, we created more opportunities for artists to help spread the word about what they were doing.

We chose the name Nieuw Art Blog because it calls upon both the history of Dutch settlement in Jersey City.
This blog, like many others, is a volunteer effort. If you are interested in being considered as an artist-writer, please check out this page.
