About Project

At present, “The Database of Academic Writings” is aimed at systematizing scientific legacy within art history and theory and related academic disciplines, such as: arts management and administration, culture studies, culture/arts sociology, philosophy, cultural anthropology, etc.; it promotes scientific achievements of the national researchers in Georgia and beyond. In the long run the platform serves to ensure proper intellectual development on the national level. Writings represent intellectual property of individual researchers developed in partnership with research and educational institutions.

Therefore, platform collects Master and PhD theses, monographs and other types of academic writings developed in partnership with research institutions; also, articles published in peer-reviewed journals and conference proceedings.

The Project is the extension of „Contemporary Art Archive – Tbilisi“ and is supported by International Education Center Alumni Association.

The archive was restored in 2026. Abstracts and full texts are being added gradually.
