Art Plus Magazine (stylized as Art+ Magazine, formerly known as Contemporary Art Philippines) is a magazine published bi-monthly from Mandaluyong, Philippines. The magazine includes reviews of visual arts exhibitions in and around the Philippines as well as features on Philippine art, book, film, and theater reviews, a visual arts calendar, an auction update section, an exhibitions calendar, and a gallery directory. It also features the White Wall section, where guest contributors and curators select featured artwork around a theme. It is the only magazine in the Philippines to specialize in Philippine visual art.
The company's multimedia platform expanded in recent years with the launch of Art+ Magazine's e-commerce arm, Art+ Collectibles, in 2021. The online shop extended into an inclusive platform for up-and-coming local artists as it opened its online exhibition space through Art+ Discoveries. Recently, Art+ launched the first Modern and Contemporary Art Festival (alternatively known as MoCAF), featuring the fast-developing Philippine art scene, showcasing revered modern and contemporary masters and rising artists.
History Art+ Magazine was established in 2008 formerly as Contemporary Art Philippines. It is the longest-running visual arts magazine in the Philippines. The magazine is published once every two months (bi-monthly), or six times a year.
