The Institute of Art History (IAH) of the Czech Academy of Sciences (CAS) is one of the public research workplaces associated in the CAS. Its aim is to carry out research in the fields of the history and theory of the visual arts, aesthetics, architecture and musicology. Among its most important projects are the History of Czech Visual Art in several volumes, and the inventories of the Artistic Heritage of Bohemia, Moravia, Silesia, and Prague.
The staff of the Institute are the authors of many other publications, and organise or help to organise exhibition projects in the Czech Republic and abroad. Many of them are active at universities as teachers or as doctoral students. The Institute is involved in various Czech and international projects, and cooperates with many research institutes and experts both in the Czech Republic and elsewhere. It is a member of the international association RIHA (Research Institutes in the History of Art).
