Josie Thaddeus-Johns, Editor at Artsy, is looking for pitches:
I am still looking for writers across Asia, especially in Tokyo, Singapore and Seoul, please get in touch!
Note that we cover art in the context of galleries and museums (rather than "arts" more generally).
More specific pitch guidelines are here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1n1cSKd7xiz9fAkTjOTERgRkgAHBbKXgH8a7wTuoD-zo/edit I'm mostly looking for evergreen ideas or pegged to end of Jan onwards.
Read Artsy's editorial section here: https://artsy.net/articles and here are 3 of my favorite stories from 2023:

Email josie.thaddeusjohns@artsy.net with your location in the subject line. IMPORTANT: Do not send pitches anywhere else, I don't check any social media platforms for pitches and anything sent to my personal gmail will be deleted. Looking forward to reading ideas!
We usually pay between $250-500 per piece (sometimes more) depending on scope.
