For over forty years and through many transformations, this magazine has held on to its central qualifier, News, as its guiding principle. We interpret this today as an urgency. It is defined by our insistence on supporting the expression and interpretation of art and its artists in critically responsive and responsible ways.
—Cameron Ah Loo-Matamua, Editor, Issue 197
