Intellect is an independent academic publisher in the fields of creative practice and popular culture, publishing scholarly books and journals that exemplify our mission as publishers of original thinking. We aim to provide a vital space for widening critical debate in new and emerging subjects, and in this way we differ from other publishers by campaigning for the author rather than producing a b

ook or journal to fill a gap in the market. We publish in four distinct subject areas: visual arts, film studies, cultural and media studies, and performing arts. These categories host Intellect’s ever-expanding topics of enquiry, which include photography, drawing, curation, community music, gaming and scenography. Intellect titles are often multidisciplinary, presenting scholarly work at the cross section of arts, media and creative practice. Intellect seeks to offer an unbiased platform for quality critical debate. We are committed to representing the author’s voice authentically, without imposition of our personal ideas or opinions. We place great emphasis on serving our authors and editors, customers, and communities. As a mission-based publisher, we are committed to reinvesting in our publishing activities.

Intellect is pleased to announce that Studies in Comics 15.1-2 is out now!

Special Issue: ‘Comics, Conscience and Gender’

This double-length Special Issue collects proceedings from an open call for submissions held after the thirteenth iteration of the International Graphic Novel and Comics Conference held in July 2022 at the Lexicon Library and Cultural Centre, Dún Laoghaire, just outside Dublin, supported by Bournemouth University’s Women’s Academic Network, the Institute of Art, Design and Technology and the Creative Futures Academy. This event examined how contemporary challenges to conscience, ethics and responsibility prompt us to think about comics texts and representations, as well as considering how to approach or rethink debates and conflicts within comics studies itself.

Including ‘Of monsters and women: Gender, s*xual violence and the logic of familiarity in Drawing Power’ by Mihaela Precup and ‘Queer unmaking: Monstrosity and dancing liberation in Percy Bertolini’s Da sola (2021)’ by Alice Parrinello

Special Issue: ‘Into/Across the Sea’

This special issue delves into and extends across the sea by exploring critical art practices and methodologies at the intersections of performance art, new media and site-specific/installation art, that integrate ocean, waves, currents, tides, coasts, depths, sea objects/vessels or environmental conditions as vital agents of the artwork.

Including ‘The Constitution of the Sea: New boundaries and identity through watery, transdisciplinary artistic practice’ by Kat Austen and ‘Exploring watery sonic imaginaries in the age of the Aquatocene’ by Robertina Šebjanič

Secretary to the People: Sheryl Oring Uses a Typewriter to Activate Democracy with Art on the Streets of Philly and Beyond

Join us on the evening of January 30th at the Parkway Central branch of The Free Library of Philadelphia as we launch this multimedia installation showcasing over 20 years of work by artist Sheryl Oring.

With her “I Wish to Say” project, in which she dresses as a 1960s secretary and takes her typewriter to public spaces such as libraries and parks to document people’s hopes, fears, and expectations of the nation’s future, Oring has defined socially engaged art practice in the 21st century. Oring will share more about her process and how performance art amplifies the everyday acts of listening and meaning making.

This free, drop-in event is from 5:30 to 7:30 pm and will include light refreshments as well as a Q&A with Oring and curator Suzanna Urminska.

The exhibition will be open during Parkway Central Library’s public hours during the first 100 days of the U.S. presidency and will include related public programming. The library is at 1901 Vine Street in Philadelphia.
