Support CAA’s Journals through the Publications Fund
posted by CAA — December 05, 2012
As 2012 comes to a close and CAA looks toward the year to come, it is time for us to consider the future of our publications. CAA’s long-standing, highly regarded print journals, The Art Bulletin and Art Journal, deliver much of the world’s leading scholarship in art history and visual studies. CAA member support of the Publications Fund helps maintain each publication’s preeminent position. I encourage you to join our growing list of donors this year.
The Art Bulletin, which covers the full range of art history in essays by some of the world’s most acclaimed art scholars, marks its centennial in 2013, celebrating one hundred years of exemplary scholarship and leadership in the field. Art Journal, in print since 1929, is an ever-evolving forum for topics in modern and contemporary art. Next spring will see the first issue of its new editor-in-chief, Lane Relyea. The youngest CAA publication, the born-digital caa.reviews, annually presents hundreds of reviews of books, exhibitions, publications, projects, conferences, and symposia as the sole art journal devoted exclusively to reviews. Founded in 1998, it celebrates its fifteenth anniversary this year with an Annual Conference panel discussion about its origin, evolution, and future. Together, these three journals promote new scholarship and practices in the visual arts to an international audience.
At a time when academic publishing offers fewer venues for discussion and debate, the visibility and vitality of The Art Bulletin, Art Journal, and caa.reviews continue to broaden. The journals reach tens of thousands of readers annually and remain essential resources—none of which would be possible without the support of donors.
Contributors who give at a level of $250 or higher are prominently acknowledged in the publication they support for four consecutive issues, as well as on the publication’s website for one year. On behalf of the artists, scholars, writers, and reviewers who publish in the journals, I hope CAA can count on your support this year.
Thank you for your consideration of this request. Your ongoing commitment is essential to our success—and very much appreciated.
With best regards,
Anne Collins Goodyear
CAA Board President

- The production of its highly regarded publications: The Art Bulletin, Art Journal, and caa.reviews
- An abundance of online resources, including the Online Career Center for job listings, Standards and Guidelines for professional practices, and CAA News to keep you informed of developments in the field
- Essential advocacy work to promote federal support of the visual art
- Fellowships to graduate students and publishing grants for books in art history
- Travel grants to students and international professionals to attend the Annual Conference
- The production of yearly directories of graduate programs in the arts, which provide detailed information on higher-education programs in studio art and design, art and architectural history, curatorial studies, and more
CAA is dedicated to remaining a progressive voice and indispensible resource in the visual arts, but can only do so with the help and participation of its membership. Your contribution to the Annual Fund will allow CAA to make its active, essential voice in the art world a vital one into the future.
My great thanks for your ongoing support of CAA and contribution to this year’s appeal.
Sincerely,
Patricia McDonnell
