Call for: JAR 20

Call for Submissions: JAR Issue 20 – Winter 2019

Submission deadline: 2 April 2019

JAR is an Open Access journal that publishes artistic research from all arts disciplines including (but not limited to) the visual arts, architecture, dance, design, film, literature, music, painting, performance, photography, poetry, sculpture, theatre, video art, urban planning, etc. The journal seeks submissions of artistic research practitioners and theorists with or without academic affiliation. Rethinking the traditional journal format, JAR offers its contributors a free-to-use online space called the Research Catalogue (RC) where text can be woven together with image, audio and video material allowing for creative modes of presenting and documenting artistic work. We are specifically interested in contributions that reflect upon and expose artistic practice as research, and welcome submissions from artists interested in opening up the processes that underlie their practice. Please view our archive to get a sense of what we publish.

To be accepted for peer review, the Editorial Board considers:

1. The degree to which the exposition is conceptually and artistically strong, considered, and significant to the field.
2. Whether the exposition exposes artistic practice as research. This engages with questions and claims about knowledges within practice. For more information about the notion of ‘exposition’ please read the editorial to JAR0.
3. Whether the multimedia and design capacities of the RC have been used effectively and meaningfully to support the articulation of the research.

To submit an article, contributors are required to register for a free account on the RC and use the online space to design the layout for and expose their research. JAR provides editorial and technical guidance with these processes.
