About the Journal

Acta Academiae Artium Vilnensis (AAAV)

is a diamond open access, peer-reviewed journal published quarterly. It publishes original art historical and artistic research, reviews of publications in art history, and art history sources.

The main focus of the journal is on the history of visual arts, architecture and design, contemporary art and visual culture, as well as artistic research, but the journal may also publish research in other fields of art, sociology of culture, and philosophy, if they are relevant to the topic of a particular issue. It is one of the few peer-reviewed periodicals in art history that also contribute to the dissemination of artistic research, publishing peer-reviewed texts by artists researchers alongside scholarly articles.
