City Tech faculty, staff, and students have free access from August 5 through September 5, 2024 to a set of exciting Art History resources from Oxford University Press.
These online databases include the Benezit Dictionary of Artists, and Oxford Bibliographies for Art History and for Architecture, Preservation & Planning.
The Benezit Dictionary of Artists, one of the most comprehensive and definitive resources of artists biographies available. Revered for its global scope and its excellent coverage of European artists, Benezit is distinguished by its coverage of lesser-known artists, images of artists’ signatures, historical auction records, and lists of museum holdings.
Start using the Benezit Dictionary of Artists: Go to https://cityte.ch/benezit. If you are off campus, you will be prompted to log in with your CUNY login first.

This series of guides—resembling an annotated bibliography or high-level encyclopedia—provides a path to the best available scholarship across a wide range of humanities subjects. Annotations from top scholars help you identify the most relevant issues for research in any field.
