Studies in Art Historiography

Series Editor: Richard Woodfield, University of Birmingham,

The aim of this series is to support and promote the study of
the history and practice of art historical writing focussing on its
institutional and conceptual foundations, from the past to the
present day in all areas and all periods. Besides addressing the
major innovators of the past it also encourages re-thinking ways in
which the subject may be written in the future. It ignores the
disciplinary boundaries imposed by the Anglophone expression 'art
history' and allows and encourages the full range of enquiry that
encompasses the visual arts in its broadest sense as well as topics
falling within archaeology, anthropology, ethnography and other
specialist disciplines and approaches. It welcomes contributions
from young and established scholars and is aimed at building an
expanded audience for what has hitherto been a much specialised
topic of investigation. It complements the work of the Journal
of Art Historiography.
