The Archives of Asian Art is an annual journal devoted to the arts of South, Southeast, Central, and East Asia. Each issue contains articles by scholars of art and a selection of outstanding works of Asian art acquired by North American museums during the previous year. The editors attempt to maintain a balanced representation of regions and types of art, as well as a variety of scholarly perspectives.

The journal was founded in 1945 as the Archives of the Chinese Art Society of America, and its first volume appeared in 1946. The current title first appeared on volume 20 in 1966. The editorial offices and ownership reside with the Asia Society, which in 2007 (vol. 57) changed its publisher from Brepols to the University of Hawaiʻi Press.
