Target Readerships

Journal of Melanesia Visual Art is intended for an international readership of scholars, researchers, and students in fields such as art history, visual culture, anthropology, Indigenous studies, Pacific and Melanesian studies, cultural studies, museum and heritage studies, and art education. The journal also addresses practicing artists, curators, cultural workers, archivists, and policy-makers who are engaged with visual art, cultural heritage, and creative industries in Melanesia and the wider Pacific. In addition, it seeks to be accessible and relevant to Indigenous communities, community-based organisations, and independent art spaces that are involved in creating, teaching, or sustaining Melanesian visual art and visual traditions.
