Title
Mosaic Matters- the online magazine for all things mosaic
Description
Mosaic Matters came into being as a twice-yearly newsletter, edited by Paul Bentley; the first issue appeared in the summer of 1991. The intention was to keep British mosaicists informed and up-to-date about the world of mosaics, both here in Britain and abroad. For eight years it did just that: readers included mosaic artists (professional and amateur, at home and abroad), the press, selected art colleges and galleries and other interested bodies.
The newsletter covered a wide range of subjects dealing with mosaic, such as techniques and materials, exhibitions, workshops and reviews of books. There were also news items, interviews with leading mosaic artists, and technical tips.
The Mosaic Matters website came into being in 1997 when Paul Bentley showed his computer buff neighbour Andy Mitchell a copy of the newsletter and he told Paul it would translate well onto the web.
