When it comes to medieval art, there is a generous selection of such journals on the web, to supplement such print (+ restricted online access) journals as Gesta. What follows is a selection of such journals, with a brief description lifted from the introductory pages of the respective journals.
The journal is edited by Sarah Blick, and the latest issue is Volume 3, Issue 1 (2010). The journal also maintains a photo-bank.
The journal is "a web-based, open-access, peer-reviewed annual, devoted to progressive scholarship on medieval art. Different Visions seeks to fill a significant gap in current publishing venues by featuring articles employing contemporary postmodern and poststructuralist theoretical frameworks to examine medieval visual culture. Authors are encouraged to explore the application of such approaches as feminist and gender analysis, historiography, semiotics, post colonialism and queer theory to works produced during the period from the fourth through the fifteenth century. The journal will also consider essays on medieval visual culture that emerge from multiple disciplinary perspectives." The editor-in-Chief of the Journal is Rachel Dressler, and Issue Two is the most latest on the site.
JHNA:
"JNHA is the electronic journal of Historians of Netherlandish Art. Every summer and winter, the journal publishes issues of peer-reviewed articles that focus on art produced in the Netherlands (north and south) during the early modern period (c. 1400-c.1750), and in other countries and later periods as they relate to Netherlandish art. Submissions are encouraged on painting, sculpture, graphic arts, tapestry, architecture, and decoration, from the perspectives of art history, art conservation, technical studies, museum studies, historiography, and collecting history." Latest issue available is Volume 3, Issue 1.
Concilium Medii Aevi online

TMR: The Medieval Review
"Since 1993, The Medieval Review (TMR; formerly the Bryn Mawr Medieval Review) has been publishing reviews of current work in all areas of Medieval Studies, a field it interprets as broadly as possible. The electronic medium allows for very rapid publication of reviews, and provides a computer searchable archive of past reviews, both of which are of great utility to scholars and students around the world. TMR operates as a moderated distribution list. Subscribers receive reviews as e-mail; TMR posts each review as soon as the editors have received and edited it. There is no paper TMR. Once posted, reviews are archived and available for viewing, searching, printing, etc."

Hortulus: The Online Graduate Journal of Medieval Studies is a refereed journal devoted to the literature and cultures of the medieval world. Published electronically once a year, its mission is to present a forum in which graduate students from around the globe may share their work." Currently available: Volume 5, 2009.
"This electronically edited journal is published on the web by the Romanian Group for an Alternative History and it consists of a series of articles, notes, and commentaries. Most of the articles have already been published in various other scientific journals or will be soon disseminated otherwise. Studia Patzinaka's purpose is not to compete with these journals, but to provide a wider and easier access to the information hardly accessible in print." Edited by Ana Maria Gruia, the journal includes several studies on art history in various languages. Unfortunately, Number 7 from 2008 is the most recent issue available.
Annual of Medieval Studies at CEU
Published by the Department of Medieval Studies at the Central European University (Budapest), this is a print journal which started in 1994, and contains several art historical studies. "The volumes of the Annual of Medieval Studies at CEU offer a series of articles on various aspects of the history of medieval Central and Eastern Europe and gives an overview of the articles of the department in the academic years." The journal has recently been made available online, although the last five volumes are password-protected. It is thus not fully open access - but it includes studies on medieval Hungary, so I had to include it here.

To keep track of open access art history journals and articles, I recommend the Art History TOCs blog of Gábor Endrődi. Do you know of any other online journals I should have listed here? Let me know in a comment!
