This text aims to give an overview of the contemporary academic research on cultural journalism in Brazil in the field of communication. It discusses the insertion of this specialized sector into the artistic and cultural system, whose dynamics include the journalistic work of bringing issues and their analysis to the attention of the public. Finally, based on the constructionist perspective — according to which, news is defined as a context-influenced social construction — it attempts to ascertain what the predominant news values are in contemporary cultural journalism, in order to ponder the possibilities and limitations of journalism in the representation of the artistic and cultural field.

Key Words: cultural journalism • news values • research in cultural journalism in Brazil
