Fontes historiae artium
Opera minora historiae artium
The Institute of Art History's publishing house Artefactum was founded in 1994 with the aim not only of publishing (mainly in Czech, sometimes in English or German) the results of the research of the Institute, but also of making accessible the original work of Czech and international art historians on important European (primarily Central European) topics. It is the only publishing house in the Czech Republic to publish selected dissertations that have been defended at Czech universities in the field of art history.
A dominant role in the financing of the works published is played by the Editorial Board of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic. The Artefactum publishing house coordinates its activities with the Academia publishing house.
Artefactum publishes two regular series of works: Fontes historiae artium, a series of editions of written sources from Czech and international archives on the history of Czech and international visual art; and Opera minora historiae artium, focusing mainly on monograph studies devoted both to individual artists and to specific works of art. Among its other standard publications are conference proceedings and research catalogues, and the Bulletin Studia Rudolphina.
