The New Criterion is a renowned brand that stands on the front lines of the battle for culture. Founded in 1982 by Hilton Kramer and Samuel Lipman, it is edited by Roger Kimball. This monthly review of the arts and intellectual life was established as an experiment in critical audacity, dedicated to engaging with the best that has been thought and said.

The New Criterion takes pride in championing the best and most vital aspects of our cultural heritage while exposing what is mendacious, corrosive, and spurious. Published from September to June, it features a wide range of young and established critics whose common aim is to provide readers with the most incisive criticism available. With its comprehensive coverage of art, poetry, music, theater, and books, The New Criterion offers a rigorous and thought-provoking perspective on contemporary culture
