Abstract
The SAAM Fellows program, founded in 1970 by the new director, Dr. Joshua C. Taylor, has had a transformative and salutary effect on the field of American art and culture studies. Pre-doctoral students are combined in community with senior scholars, and both with conservation specialists, all immersed in the rich holdings of the Smithsonian Institution. There the close study of artworks and archival records has thrived, serving the burgeoning field both in the academy and the museum. The program as envisioned by Taylor has helped wed the interests of those two parties in a new and fruitful partnership.
期刊介绍：
American Art is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to exploring all aspects of the nation"s visual heritage from colonial to contemporary times. Through a broad interdisciplinary approach, American Art provides an understanding not only of specific artists and art objects, but also of the cultural factors that have shaped American art over three centuries of national experience. The fine arts are the journal"s primary focus, but its scope encompasses all aspects of the nation"s visual culture, including popular culture, public art, film, electronic multimedia, and decorative arts and crafts. American Art embraces all methods of investigation to explore America·s rich and diverse artistic legacy, from traditional formalism to analyses of social context.
