• ᐧ manuscripts on all periods of Asian art are welcome; the Editorial Board encourages and wishes to publish original, innovative scholarship on all aspects of Contemporary Asian Art are welcome and encouraged; the Editorial Board wishes to publish original, innovative scholarship on all aspects of contemporary Asian Art;

• ᐧ we also solicit short (approximately 1000–2000 word) scholarly ‘Museum’ articles on a specific object, a display or exhibition, history of collecting, or materials/technical analysis or conservation as an opportunity for intellectual engagement between museum professionals and art historians;

• ᐧ Archives of Asian Art will be published two times per year beginning with volume 63, number 1 (Spring 2013) and followed by volume 63, number 2 (Fall 2013).
