Art History Publication Initiative for First Books
Art History Publication Initiative
A multi-press collaboration to create new publishing opportunities for scholars of art history
This exciting new publishing opportunity offers art historians seeking publication of their first book the chance to be part of a groundbreaking collaborative publishing project. Authors whose books are selected for inclusion in AHPI will find many benefits, including:
• Financial assistance and guidance in acquiring and securing permission for illustrations
• Publication in both print and electronic editions
• A shared website hosting additional electronic enhancements to the book, including but not limited to audio, video, illustrative material, animation, and podcasts
• A strong marketing program including both print and digital
advertising
The four AHPI presses publish in distinctive and complementary areas within art history. Each press will acquire books independently, and will manage those books through acquisition, peer review, and formal acceptance. We will all share a permissions manager, who will help guide authors in permissions, as well as a managing editor through the editorial and production process.
Our strengths fall into distinct areas
Duke University Press emphasizes scholarship on modern and contemporary art that focuses on the interconnected but distinct histories of those periods around the globe. Duke publishes influential lists in American, Latin American, East Asian, and South Asian art, with additional strengths in the histories of photography and feminist art.
Pennsylvania State University Press is among the most highly regarded publishers of scholarly books on Western medieval, early modern, and modernist art and architecture, with notable lists in Latin American and American art and photography.
The University of Pennsylvania Press art programs have become a significant feature of an increasing number of titles across the humanities, but especially so in the field of American studies and in the award-winning series Penn Studies in Landscape Architecture.
The University of Washington Press is among the most prolific university presses in the field of art history, publishing in Native American art, Asian art, African art, and books that focus on the work of American artists of color.
