We are proud to announce the first ever issue of Alla Prima, which will be released digitally on 2 October 2025. This brand-new magazine is devoted to art, artists, and the stories that shape creativity. For our debut, we turn to one of the most inspiring figures in art history: Vincent van Gogh.
In this inaugural issue, readers will explore the life and art of Vincent van Gogh, discover the brilliance of his Café Terrace at Night, and follow the story behind the creation of the Van Gogh Museum. We also dive into the dramatic world of art crime, with a feature on the notorious 2002 Van Gogh Museum theft. In addition, the Technique section introduces the fundamentals of Alla Prima painting, offering readers a closer look at this bold approach to art.
To complement these, you’ll also find a step-by-step watercolor tutorial for beginners, a feature on the bold elegance of the Art Deco movement, and a look at the invention of canvas, which forever changed the possibilities of painting. Each section adds a new layer to our exploration of art, blending history, creativity, and practice.
Alla Prima begins its journey here—with Van Gogh at the heart of its first issue. This release is more than a magazine; it is an invitation to step into the world of art with fresh eyes and renewed curiosity. On 02.10.2025, join us as we turn the very first page of this new adventure.
