Getty Research Journal

A journal of the Getty Research Institute, in the United States, that publishes peer-reviewed articles on the visual arts of all cultures, regions and time periods. It welcomes a range of perspectives and methods, and encourages topics and cultural perspectives that remain marginalised in art history. Since spring 2024 it has been diamond open access, free to read online and in PDF and e-book formats.

The Getty Research Journal is an open-access publication presenting peer-reviewed articles on the visual arts of all cultures, regions, and time periods. The journal is published through Getty’s Quire software and freely available 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, as well as work by scholars of underrepresented backgrounds. The Getty Research Journal converted to diamond open access with the publication of its nineteenth issue (spring 2024). All past issues, including those previously accessible only by subscription (nos. 1-18), are now freely available through Project MUSE and JSTOR.
