Erica Lubow Necarsulmer

Erica Lubow Necarsulmer is publisher of ARTnews and Art in America. A native New Yorker, her first appearance on the New York art scene was by means of “Learning Through Art,” a program for second- to sixth-grade students in which her work was shown at the Guggenheim Museum. She pursued this interest at Denison University, from which she graduated with a minor in studio art and a major in psychology. In 2005, after working at the New York Sun newspaper in the Travel and Arts sections, she started at ARTnews, owned at the time by Milton Esterow. Since moving to ARTnews, Erica has witnessed the business go from focusing purely on print to the start of ARTnews.com, and the daily newsletters Breakfast with ARTnews and ARTnews Today, social media sponsorships, engaging sponsored content options, webinars, podcasts, and live media. In 2015, when ARTnews came together with Art in America under the ownership of Peter M. Brant, Erica assumed the position of senior account manager; she was named publisher of ARTnews in 2017. Erica works closely with ARTnews editor-in-chief Sarah Douglas, coordinating the work of editorial and business teams to safeguard the publication’s integrity and promote its award-winning reporting. Since Art Media acquired Art Market Monitor, Erica’s favorite new game is AMM’s Fantasy Art Collecting game.
