CFP: Burlington Contemporary

Deadline September 10, 2018

Website | Application

Burlington Contemporary is a new online platform dedicated to fresh research and informed opinion on recent art, due to launch October 2018. Reviews of exhibitions and books will be published weekly. These will be international in scope, and the emphasis will be on clear, accessible writing and expert, informed and diverse opinion. In addition, a free access, peer-reviewed academic journal will be published online three times a year, with its first issue scheduled for the end of 2018. We hope to address the question of how to write art history for the art being made today, as well as to bring together the most important research and thinking on contemporary art from around the world.

We are seeking academic articles on contemporary art for this major new online publishing project. Submissions, which should be no longer than 5,000 words, should be based on original research and deal with the work of living artists. All articles will be subject to peer review.
