Aims and scope

The Australian and New Zealand Journal of Art is published by the Art Association of Australia and New Zealand. AAANZ is Australia’s professional body for art and design historians, arts writers, artists, students of art history and theory, and museum professionals. The Journal is Australasia’s principal refereed art history journal. The Journal is dedicated to the study of art history and its various emanations including art practice, theory and exhibition.

The editors seek research papers that engage with critical debates and frameworks across art historical and theoretical enquiry within local and global contexts, plus review essays evaluating publications and exhibitions.

Peer review policy

The Editorial Board sends submissions it considers suitable to two referees in a double anonymized process. Publication depends upon the referees’ assessment, the availability of space in the Journal, and the author's willingness and ability to address the concerns (if any) raised by the editors and referees within specified deadlines. The Editorial Board reserves the right to decide whether or not to publish the paper.

Authors can choose to publish gold open access in this journal.
