An Online Open Access Journal Based in Beijing, China, and Connecting to the World http://caet.inspirees.com

Call for submissions

Creative Arts in Education and Therapy (CAET): Eastern and Western Perspectives is an international open access journal published by the Inspirees Education Group. CAET is the premier reference worldwide for artists, educators, and therapists who use and integrate creative and expressive arts in their work. The journal’s focus is the discussion of perspectives, theory-based applications, and practical results on issues concerning the West and the East — particularly China and its neighboring cultures. The journal fosters dialogue between the East and the West and supports cross-disciplinary cooperation and research between creative arts (creative writing, dance/movement, drama, film, music, and visual arts) and education, therapy, psychology, medicine, and other related fields. CAET was founded by Dr. Tony Yu Zhou and is led by two editors-in-chief, Shaun McNiff, university professor at Lesley University, and Professor Stephen K. Levine, of the European Graduate School. CAET has an editorial board consisting of 50 leading international expressive arts experts.

CAET invites research articles, case reports, program descriptions, position papers, interviews, artwork, and conference reports relevant to the field. We also welcome books for review consideration. Manuscripts are subject to a peer review process before being accepted and published. Contributions should be in English and will be published with bilingual abstracts in English and Chinese. CAET publishes two issues per year in both print and online versions and is distributed worldwide and is collected by the National Library of China, Royal Dutch National Library, and major art universities in China. CAET is a gold open access journal, and publishing with CAET is free of charge (no article processing charge).

We cordially invite authors to contribute papers to CAET in order to share your perspectives among colleagues in the East and West. Artistic formats are supported together with scholarly writing. Submitted manuscripts should contain no more than 4,000-6,000 words and make a direct effort to include China/Asia in their content. Full submission guidelines can be found at the CAET website http://caet.inspirees.com/for-authors/. Inquiries regarding journal policy, manuscript preparation, and other such general topics should be sent to the CAET editorial office: caet.journal@inspirees.com.

We encourage prospective contributors to consider the following possible areas of focus for an article submitted to CAET:

1. The arts: poetry, dance, music, theatre, visual art (including calligraphy) — focusing on dialogue and relationship between the arts in the East and in the West in both theory and practice. Traditional and contemporary art-making can be explored.
2. The mind-body relationship in different cultures, comparison of various healing methods, both traditional and modern (e.g., acupuncture), and the martial and meditative arts (e.g., chi kung, tai chi), Eastern and Western concepts of health and disease and how healing methods are related to these, prevention and cure of disease, and well-being and health promotion.
3. Buddhist and Taoist perspectives on the arts; comparative philosophical approaches to aesthetics.
4. Concepts of the person in different cultures — the senses, emotions, breath, consciousness, and spirit — in relation to society, culture, and nature.

We strongly recommend you to read the published CAET articles online (http://caet.inspirees.com/caetojsjournals/index.php/caet/issue/archive) in order to get some idea of the styles of CAET and our requirements.

We look forward to your contribution. Many thanks in advance for your willingness to write for CAET!

Warm regards,
Executive Editorial Committee, CAET

CAET Statement

CAET was founded in 2014 to further communication and cooperation between the East and the West regarding the arts in therapy, education, and human understanding. The peer-reviewed journal, centered in Beijing, began with a commitment to bridging emerging and traditional practices in China and its neighboring countries and cultures with arts therapy and education communities in the West where the disciplines are more established; thus, the decision was made to publish in English with summaries and supporting materials in Chinese. In the fall of 2018, CAET became an open access (OA) journal, the first of its kind in the various communities that it serves. Online publication significantly expands accessibility and incorporates color, imagery, and video to more effectively present the artistic expressions which inform every aspect of the publication. The inaugural OA issue (4.1) features “Outsider art in China in dialogue with the West.” CAET subscriptions are also available in hard copy.

The Journal’s East-West perspective is dedicated to exploring, presenting, and understanding the necessary interdependence of all world communities — current, past, and future — as originally envisioned by the Sì Xiàng (四象), the four creatures who stand at the cardinal directions of the universe and affirm China’s historic emphasis on living in attunement with nature. Contributions regarding how artistic expressions, in their infinite uniqueness, relate to this shared humanity are welcomed from all regions of the world.

The Journal encourages scholarly, engaging, and art-based submissions in various media (visual art, film and video, dance, drama, poetry and literature, music, integrated arts, and all possible modes of artistic expression) presented in ways that are accessible to the public. Read more.

CAET声明

CAET期刊成立于2014年，旨在促进东西方艺术在治疗、教育和理解人类方面的交流与合作。以北京为中心的这份同行评审期刊一开始就致力于将中国及其周边国家和文化新兴和传统的专业实践与已经成熟的西方艺术治疗和教育社区联系起来，因此CAET决定使用英文全文出版并附中文摘要。在2018年秋季，CAET转化为开放获取（OA）期刊，使其成为本专业领域第一个OA期刊。CAET的在线出版显著扩展了阅读范围，并结合色彩、图像和视频更有效地在期刊的每个方面呈现艺术表现形式。OA首发刊4.1期通过特别报道“原生艺术在中国”进行与西方的对话。CAET纸版可以通过订阅形式获得。

CAET的东西方视角致力于探索、展示和理解世界各个专业社区相互依存的必要性 - 当前，过去和未来 - 正如中国古代四象符号所设想的那样，这四大神兽位于宇宙的主要方向，表明了中国历史中强调的与自然的调和相处。我们欢迎来自世界各地关于艺术表达以其无限的独特性来连接共同人性的文章。

CAET鼓励有学术性、吸引力和基于艺术的文章投稿，并以各种媒体形式（视觉艺术、电影和视频、舞蹈、戏剧、诗歌和文学、音乐、综合艺术及所有可能的艺术表现形式）让公众进行了解。阅读更多。
