Aims & Scope

CACS publishes scholarship and practice research that advances understanding of artistic work, cultural expression, institutions, histories and contemporary cultural life.

Areas of interest

• Visual arts, art history, criticism, photography and curatorial studies
• Music, theatre, dance, performance and sound studies
• Literature, comparative arts, translation and narrative cultures
• Film, television, digital media, games and popular culture
• Design, craft, fashion, material culture and creative industries
• Museums, archives, cultural heritage, memory and conservation
• Folklore, community arts, festivals, everyday culture and intangible heritage
• Creative practice, arts education, cultural policy and interdisciplinary methods

A submission should offer a clear question or creative inquiry, an appropriate method and a contribution that matters beyond an individual artwork, performance, exhibition or event. Promotional reviews and undocumented descriptions of practice are outside the journal's scope.
