We are pleased to invite submissions to the Getty Research Journal, an open-access publication presenting peer-reviewed articles on the visual arts of all cultures, regions, and time periods. The journal is published using the Getty’s Quire software and available free of charge in web, PDF, and e-book formats. Topics often relate to Getty collections, initiatives, and broad research interests, although this is not a requirement for consideration. The journal welcomes a diversity of perspectives and methodological approaches, and seeks to include work that expands narratives on global culture. We encourage topics and cultural perspectives that remain marginalized in art history and related fields, and work by scholars of underrepresented backgrounds.
The Getty Research Journal publishes full-length articles (5,000–7,500 words, including endnotes, and 8–12 illustrations) and shorter notices highlighting early-stage research as well as recent acquisitions or discoveries (1,500–5,000 words, including endnotes, and 3–7 illustrations). Additionally, we invite submissions that utilize the digital features and functionality afforded by Quire.
Submissions are accepted through the journal’s portal on Scholastica. The next submission deadline is August 3, 2026.
