Art Journal A project of College Art Association (see other related projects). About The mission of Art Journal, founded in 1941, is to develop rigorous and shared methods by which modern and contemporary art can be understood; to engage critically with twentieth- and twenty-first-century art and art history in national and global frameworks; to encourage broad and rigorous contributions to our disciplines and to institute, in our peer review and editorial structures, an inclusive, critical, and collaborative approach to the development of new and emerging forms of thought and communities of practice; to address and redress exclusionary histories of art and art history as fields of practice and scholarship; to be pedagogically useful by making links between theoretical issues and their use in teaching at the college and university levels; to explore relationships among diverse forms of art practice and production as well as within the fields of art making, art history, visual studies, theory, and criticism; to give voice and publication opportunity to artists, art historians, and other writers in the arts; to be responsive to issues of the moment in and beyond the arts; and to promote dialogue and debate.
