The meta-bibliography is available again, in a thoroughly revised and updated version.

JAR is published by the Society for Artistic Research (SAR). "[SAR] was established in March 2010 as an independent, non-profit organisation for the purpose of publishing JAR." SAR:s institutional members are art and design schools and universities.

The journal invites submissions. JAR is peer-reviewed, but not the RC.

JMM #9 contains some articles of particular interest to readers of this blog:
