| I believe it is reaching
that impossible dream that every man has in life.
Artdaily is the outcome of 44 years of writing, editing, and
in summary, communicating.
I ask permission of our readers and visitors for writing in
first person. This newspaper is the reason for fighting daily
to communicate to those that are in the art world or that enjoy
it.
We believe, in part, that we have reached this, nevertheless,
there is a lot to be done, much more.
Our goal will always be unreachable as the internet world always
offers new things.
And to be up to date, we have to, fortunately, work every day,
be alert and with open eyes.
If Artdaily was established in 1996, being The First Art newspaper
on the Net, it was not our first work in this field.
Before we had launched the Museos magazine, in its printed version
as well as an online one.
We are talking about 1995, when only the word Internet provoked
fear to those that did not know about it.
Many museums did not have their own websites. There were a few
that were on the internet.
Here in Artdaily we produced, on our behalf but always with
the authorization of these museums, web pages for them.
Thus we got to have more than 150 museums, a record for those
times.
Today, luckily, things have changed. Now we live in constant
evolution within the revolution that internet has been.
We hope to make a better newspaper, we believe we are in the
avant guarde, to be the meeting point of art professionals or
art lovers. Here we include, of course those that study art.
