The Getty Research Journal is a peer-reviewed journal that showcases work by scholars and staff associated with the Getty Research Institute and the other programs of the J. Paul Getty Trust. Essays focus on an object or aspect of the Getty's extensive archival, rare book, and artistic holdings or bear upon the annual research themes of the Research Institute or the Getty Villa. The journal also presents a selection of short, lively pieces about new acquisitions, scholarly activities, and ongoing research projects at the Getty.

Thomas Gaehtgens is the director of the Getty Research Institute. Katja Zelljadt is head of the Scholars Program at the Getty Research Institute.
