Bard Graduate Center for Studies in the Decorative Arts, Design History, and Material Culture
The Bard Graduate Center published the internationally acclaimed journal Studies in the Decorative Arts from 1993 to 2009. It will be replaced in 2011 with West 86th: A Journal of Decorative Arts, Design History, and Material Culture. West 86th will be published in collaboration with the University of Chicago Press, and will focus on the wider crossroads where the decorative arts meet design history and material culture. In addition to its print manifestation, this new journal will be published online and will be the starting point for an open-access website dedicated to journal-related digital content. Cultural Histories of the Material World In 2012, the Bard Graduate Center will inaugurate a new book-length publication series with University of Michigan Press, Cultural Histories of the Material World. The series will be edited at the BGC and published by University of Michigan Press in book and online formats. Exhibition Catalogues Accompanying exhibitions are scholarly catalogues published by the Bard Graduate Center in collaboration with Yale University Press. Catalogues cover a broad range of subjects within the fields of the decorative arts, design, and culture. Various methodologies are employed in these publications, which illuminate the study of objects, material and cultural history. Frequently they include new color photography and appendices of historical documents. Scholarly Publications This initiative is a unique offering of the Bard Graduate Center in collaboration with Yale University Press to publish scholarly books on the decorative arts, design, and related fields. The primary goal of this initiative is to enhance scholarship and foster knowledge among the general public. The selection of book titles is based largely on merit and relevance to the center's mission. |
