We're pleased to announce the launch of the 50th volume of Ars Orientalis, a peer reviewed journal co-published by the Freer Gallery of Art and Arthur M. Sackler Gallery, Smithsonian Institution and the Department of History of Art, University of Michigan. The volume explores transformations—of a representation into a divine manifestation, of art history in an increasingly digital era—through an expanded double issue.

Learn more about Ars Orientalis, and our current call for papers for a special thematic volume on the Centennial of the Freer Gallery of Art (due April 1, 2021), see: https://asia.si.edu/research/ars-orientalis/submit/
