Not done: Lots of publications skip issues, publishing not quite uniformly throughout a given calendar period, but still refer to themselves—and are widely regarded by readers and advertisers—as monthlies, biweekies, weeklies, dailies or whatever the case may be. For instance, consider daily newspapers that don't put out Saturday and/or Sunday editions. They're still called dailies. Anyway, the matter of the combined summer issue is addressed fully at the beginning of the paragraph following the lede. Thanks for noticing and speaking up, though.

Serious debate

Artforum was serious long before burnt out '68ers like Toni Negri were published there. Only a few examples: Michael Fried wrote for the magazine in the 1960s, also conceptual artist Mel Bochner. And it was a "liberal" mag, any issue from the 1970s or 1980s has Democrats (Manny Farber), communists (Max Kozloff, Joseph Masheck), SDSlers (Greil Marcus, Buchloh), Village Voice authors (J. Hoberman, Amy Taubin). Still, serious thinking about art was the main thing (up to the mid-1980s?). The enormously influential "White Cube" Essays were published first in Artforum. Thomas McEvilley (post-colonialism) and Brian O'Doherty (art-world) basically destroyed Western Modernism, Soviet constructivism was an Artforum favorite, but most writers still had serious aesthetic standards and even very serious art historical knowledge (Joseph Masheck). Essays on consumerism, advertising, politics (Nicaragua, Lebanon: Carol Squires) appeared a bit later, also "serious" European postmodernists like the simulacrum guy - all pretty "serious", if fashionable.--Ralfdetlef (talk) 07:22, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
