Tinguely Studies is an open-access online journal published by the Museum Tinguely that serves as a key platform for academic studies of Jean Tinguely’s oeuvre. It publishes new art-historical research, reissues contributions that have been difficult to access or are particularly innovative, and creates connections between international researchers. The journal aims to highlight unexplored areas of Tinguely’s art, examine the artist’s works from new perspectives, and contextualise it within current theoretical and social debates.

Submissions between 20,000 and 30,000 characters in length (including spaces and endnotes) should be sent to the email address below by the 30 June deadline every year. In addition to art-historical and humanities-oriented approaches, essays on conservation issues of works by Tinguely are welcome. The essays may be written in German or English (and in French in exceptional cases), and they will be published in the original language.

Museum Tinguely selects contributions for publication in an in-house review process. All essays must comply with academic standards. The authors are expected to supply high-resolution comparative images, along with contact information for clearing copyright and usage rights. However, the museum has the final say about the choice of images for each essay. Authors will receive compensation for their published essays.
