Published
semiannually—May and November—since 1980, Woman's
Art Journal continues to
represent the interests of women and art worldwide. Our articles and
reviews
cover all areas of women in the visual arts, from antiquity to the
present day. Each issue presents current research on a variety of
topics, featuring "portraits" of women artists, "issues and
insights," and discerning reviews of recent books and exhibition
catalogues. Each article is well researched and clearly written. Our
authors are international scholars in their fields. A typical
60-page issue contains 20-25 color plates and 25-35 black-and-white
illustrations.
WAJ
is indexed on all major art indexes and bibliographies, and is used as
a supplementary text in many university courses on women and art. The
journal is found in university and major
libraries worldwide and in selected museum bookshops, including the
Metropolitan (New York), Philadelphia, and Nelson-Atkins (Kansas City),
and the National Museum of Women in the Arts (Washington,
D.C.). The full text is also available in the electronic versions of
the Art
Index and through JSTOR’s
Arts & Sciences III Collection.
