Over the last year we have brought you countless interviews with artists in the Arts & Culture section of Dazed Digital, featuring stories on luminaries such as Damien Hirst, Peter Blake, Billy Childish and Marina Abramovic to rising art stars such as Lola DuPre, Boo Saville and Wolfe von Lenkiewicz. Choosing ten stories we thought you might like to revisit in the New Year was tough work, as there were many more interviews we wanted to include, such as our interviews with Radiohead artist Stanley Donwood, avante-garde composer Michael Nyman and iconic image-maker David LaChapelle.

Sadly, you can't have them all in there, so we took a vote and went for a mix-up of the stories exclusive to Dazed Digital that we got the biggest kick out of, and the ones that you guys seemed most excited about. We would like to thank all of our contributors for their hard work, and look forward to bringing you more killer editorial in 2011.
