Hi everyone! My name is Emma Kimmel and I'm a 2nd-year graduate student in paintings conservation at the New York University Institute of Fine Arts Conservation Center. I am on the editorial board for the newly launched journal *Lapis: The Journal of the Institute of Fine Arts*, which is seeking articles for its Spring 2019 inaugural issue! The submission deadline is *December 6th emailed to [email protected] <[email protected]>. *Please see the call for papers below, or head to our website <https://wp.nyu.edu/lapis/call-for-papers/> for more information:
*Lapis* is a peer-reviewed, open access journal on art history, architecture, and art conservation published by the Institute of Fine Arts at New York University. *Lapis* is dedicated to scholarly articles on art history from all fields with an emphasis on publications from graduate students and early career scholars internationally. In considering art history as a trans-temporal and interdisciplinary practice tightly linked to material culture, *Lapis* strives to present studies that are broad in chronological, geographic, and methodological scope. Technical art history submissions should emphasize how a better understanding of materials and craftsmanship influence our interaction with, interpretation, presentation, and preservation of works of art. Papers bolstered by evidence derived from scientific analysis, specialized imaging, and conservation treatments are particularly encouraged. Articles between 4,000 and 5,000 words by graduate students and scholars within three years of graduation are welcomed. All submissions must be formatted in .doc or .docx documents and should be double-spaced and in 12-point Times New Roman font. *Lapis* cannot accept .pdf submissions. Please note we practice blind peer review; please only include author name on the title page and ensure all other documents and materials are free of identifying information. All submissions should include the following attached as separate documents: Abstract (maximum 350 words) Title page with author’s name, title, institutional affiliation (or year of degree conferral), contact information, and brief biographical statement (maximum 100 words) Article (maximum 5000 words, excluding footnotes) List of illustrations and captions Works Cited Please email submissions to *[email protected] <[email protected]> by Thursday, December 6th*. Submissions received after December 6th will be considered on a rolling basis.
