Journal Information for The Journal of Decorative and Propaganda Arts

Moving Wall: 5

Since 1986, The Journal of Decorative and Propaganda Arts has been dedicated to fostering new scholarship for the period 1875 to 1945 and parallels themes contained in the collection of The Wolfsonian. The 25th issue, released in May 2005, is devoted to the American hotel; its 10 essays explore the material, social, and cultural world of large American hotels and tell the story of how they evolved into some of the world's most significant and interesting buildings. Past issues of the award-winning journal have addressed other themes, including volumes that focused on architecture and design in Florida, Cuba, Russia/Soviet Union, Brazil, Yugoslavia and Argentina, as well as aspects of the collection such as New Deal murals and Arts and Crafts metal work, among others.
