Publishing Program

The publishing program is on the one hand conceived as a logical complement to the optional Visual Studies course, and on the other hand it is an autonomous activity aiming at facilitating the students' easier and faster access to relevant literature on the history and theory of modern art. Within the framework of this program we propose to establish several series of publications, each serving the purposes of individual fields of study or specialized courses. The publishing program must not be an end in itself, but must respond directly to the students' educational needs and to those theory-related parts of the studies which the lecturers will deem particularly important to conducting their programs. Since Croatian translations of literature dedicated to visual arts are still scarce, the Center will a) propose in its program concrete titles to be translated into Croatian; b) edit its own compilations of theoretical essays by foreign and domestic authors and c) propose the publishing of original, previously unpublished scientific and professional works by Croatian authors. The publishing program will be elaborated in consultation with interested lecturers, relying on the Center's professional, editorial and technical support.
