The Allgemeines Künstlerlexikon (AKL), [Artists of the World], is the successor to the traditional Thieme-Becker and Vollmer standard reference works on art history. It has been published since 1991. Long a standard work in its own right, the AKL is intentionally not limited to the "grand masters," but includes artists from all over the world and throughout the ages from antiquity to the present. It not only contains painters, sculptors and graphic designers, but gives equal weight to architects, designers, photographers, calligraphers, craftsmen and many other artistic professions. Around 1,500 artist biographies are contained in each volume. An index arranged according to country and artistic profession follows every tenth volume.
According to the updated schedule for the AKL, the print edition will be completed in 2020. In the meantime, the proportion of articles published exclusively online will continually increase.
The first volumes of the AKL were compiled from 1969 onwards. This period of almost four decades is now being covered in supplementary volumes, the first of which was published in 2005, for the letter A. The fifth supplementary volume (Cassini - Czwartos) was published in 2012.
Every entry offers the following clearly structured information:
Since January 2010, we are offering a combined print + online annual subscription. For more information, please visit www.degruyter.de/akl.
