Researcher, Department of Historiography and Theory of Art

Tomáš Murár studied art history at the Institute for Art History, Faculty of Arts, Charles University (Ph.D. 2019) and now teaches historiography and methodology of art history there. In the Institute of Art History of the CAS he has been working as a research fellow since 2018 (2019-2021 as a postdoctoral fellow) and his research focuses on the history and theory of Central European art history, especially the so-called Vienna School of art history. He has already organized three international conferences on this topic (2019 The Influence of the Vienna School before and after 1918; 2021 The 100th Anniversary of Max Dvořák's Death; 2023 Origins, Modifications, and Influences of Its Theoretical Concepts) and is collaborating with the English Journal of Art Historiography on the preparation of the proceedings of these conferences. He is also involved in the preparation of a series of translations in philosophy, theory, and aesthetics of art for Academia Publishing called Ars - Philosophia/Aesthetica/Theoria (2021 A. C. Danto, After the End of Art; 2023 R. Barilli The Science of Culture and the Phenomenology of Styles) and regularly publishes articles on the theory, historiography, and methodology of art history in international journals.
