Art History bloggers?

By clock on September 1, 2008.

I asked if anyone knows any art history blogs? I am aware of many history blogs, and some art blogs, but no art history blogs.

Neil responded with the discovery of this post - why have there been no great art history bloggers?

And then found two: Your Daily Art and The Art History Blog.

Anyone know any others?

Science Blogging - what it can be
From quite early on in my blogging endeavor, I was interested in exploring science blogging, what it is, what it can do, and what it can become. So, check out some of my earliest thoughts on this here and here. Then, over about a month (from April 17, 2006 to May 17, 2006) I wrote a gazillion…
I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, people like to read my blog.
So I've been bumping into this idea on several blogs (idea? or is it a cult? ... I refuse to call it a meme, sorry Richard). I have some trouble understanding what it all means. Is it hard, as in hard core? To help us understand the meaning of all this rhetoric, they (a bunch of hard core German…

What is a Science Blog?
A blog is software. Importantly: a blog is free software. Everyone can use it in any way they want. If there are 100 million blogs out there, there are 100 million blogging styles and 100 million ideas what blogging "is". And anyone who dares tell others how to do it incurs the wrath of the other…

I'll take this as a challenge...
I have a blog but I have ignored it as I work on my thesis. I also very rarely write about Art History as I am in a Interdisciplinary program - Art History and Geography. I have a BA in Art History, concentrating on Medieval Art, specifically Italian and Islamic Art before 1200.

If you're looking for images the school has a nice site and I can provide a list of other sites too.

I'm sure you're already well aware of our very own art historian, bioephemera, whose well-researched posts (like this recent one) on artistic representations of science through history are presented with a surprisingly light touch. Her blog is perhaps not all art history, but I'd certainly count it in.

Here's another blog, The Earthly Paradise. Check out her posts for carnivals that lead to other blogs.
I looked at my blog and it's as bad as I thought. I started on a whim and never did anything else. Nevertheless, I have a couple of posts about one of my favorite topics, the mosaics of Ravenna. I'll will try to update on a weekly basis, but cannot make promises.
In the mean time, here's a little flash I did on my second favorite topic, the Cathedral of Modena.

Hi there -- I'm the owner of The Art History Blog, and very flattered that you linked my site! I, too, have been frustrated by the lack of art history blogs -- thus, why I created my own blog. But I've ammassed a few links that you might be interested in, which I've listed below. (Also, If any of you with art history blogs who have posted above would like to exchange links, I'd love to put your blogs up on my own site.)

Hope these links prove helpful.

I realized that you posted this awhile ago, but I just wanted to add my art history blog to your comment list. As an art historian, I am also saddened by the lack of art history blogs. My blog consists of interesting anecdotes that I have come across in my research. I also write about my opinions regarding art and the field of art history.

If you are interested, you're welcome to add my link to your site:
