Videotape is essentially an obsolete technology, a fact that dramatically slows down digitization efforts. Furthermore, in support of the protection of artist’s rights, access to video art is often controlled by third party distributors. While distributors are crucial champions of the medium, issues of copyright complicate discussions of online access. Opportunistic art lovers have taken matters into their own hands, uploading work to online platforms and creating new liminal spaces of access. This article offers an understanding of video recording technology, the historical development and dissemination of video art, and the problematic nature of many online resources that provide access to these culturally valuable works.

Part I is an overview of the sea change in craft studies among scholars, curators, and artists. It also documents the shift of craft history studies into an emerging post-disciplinary field, still at home academically in art schools and university art history departments, but now greatly influenced by anthropology, ethnography, sociology, material culture, critical theory, women’s studies, and other disciplines. In illustrating this shift, the author compares her experience when employed (1976–1997) as museum librarian at the former Craft and Folk Art Museum in Los Angeles with the current program of the renamed (Craft Contemporary) museum. She also compares three craft history textbooks. Part II describes the author’s search for teachers of craft history and records the results of a survey conducted in May 2021 of twenty-eight craft history teachers in US and Canadian colleges. The comments are so diverse the author could not summarize them, and she includes excerpts from all who answered the narrative questions. Though gender and race bias in craft studies must still be confronted, as in art history studies as a whole, the teaching of craft history is moving toward a global perspective. However, the practical need to break down the global into more manageable parts is a pedagogical and bibliographic challenge.","PeriodicalId":43009,"journal":{"name":"Art Documentation","volume":"15 1","pages":"38 - 69"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89924159","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Today, when photo-documentary material is used in automated analysis, image production errors produced by limits of the medium may be built into machine learning, generative adversarial networks (GANs), and convolutional neural networks (CNNs). This article focuses on the uses of photographic reproductions of the works of Rembrandt van Rijn (1606–1669), including visual analysis of photographs, technical analysis of the “Rembrandt portrait” style, and projects that employ reproductions in the architecture of neural networks—these all define the new cultural shift generative reproduction brings to visual documentation.

As institutions look inward at the ways they can dismantle ongoing systems of oppression, academia must also look at how it codifies these ideologies through Eurocentric canons. Art history is one such field. However, as a highly interdisciplinary subject, it presents a unique foundation on which to restructure these frameworks. This article dissects the role that cataloging plays in reinforcing the canon within art libraries and how a radical cataloging approach can diversify research and representation within art history as a field.

As a result, information literacy instruction for these programs has become increasingly important. The ACRL Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education provides general guidance for this instruction but, as with other performance, art, or design-oriented disciplines, it requires considerable contextualization. For fashion studies, discussions about disciplinary context have been limited, especially as they concern the ACRL Framework. This article provides a brief overview of the Framework and discusses issues of interdisciplinarity in fashion studies and applications of each frame from design and practice-based perspectives.","PeriodicalId":43009,"journal":{"name":"Art Documentation","volume":"1 1","pages":"304 - 315"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78445806","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Compiled and vetted by professional librarians and architecture faculty, the list has also informally become an information resource assessment standard for NAAB teams. Now in its fifth edition, the list is unique to the discipline in that no other professional organization publishes an alternative.

In this context, artists have also used their exhibition catalogs as forms of artistic expression. Within this framework of creative practices, this article delves into the characteristics that could lead to the definition of artists’ catalogs as a specific artistic genre. The concepts of artists’ books and exhibition catalogs are compared to discuss the ambiguities and blurred lines that make a precise delimitation difficult. The combination of both typologies is analyzed through a series of works by artists in the field of catalogs as works of art. Despite the great variability that emerges from the different perspectives through which artists’ catalogs have been conceived and produced, some common features come to light. These common features, as well as an examination of the functions and uses associated with artists’ catalogs, pave the way for answering the crucial questions as to whether these publications—as the works of art they are—are still catalogs and if they might even be considered as a differentiated genre of artists’ books.","PeriodicalId":43009,"journal":{"name":"Art Documentation","volume":"46 1","pages":"159 - 178"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90682626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
