As you may know,Southwest Art magazine was founded in Houston, TX, in 1971 and published there until 2006, when the offices were relocated to Boulder, CO. We’ve recently moved again, but this time it was just a short six or seven blocks to a different building in downtown Boulder. Of course it was a bit chaotic temporarily, as moves always are. But now we’re settled, by and large, into a slightly funky, modern space with concrete floors and exposed ceilings. Appropriately enough, there are even a few oil-paint smudges here and there—in the past, the space housed studios for several artists, and you can tell by the position of the track lighting exactly where their easels stood.
