Synopsis

These conference proceedings bring together the contributions presented at the international conference Art (History) in Educational Contexts, held on 10th and 11th February 2023 at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences of the University of Zagreb, within the project Art and the State in Croatia from the Enlightenment to the Present (HRZZ-IP-2018-01-9364) of the Croatian Science Foundation. The topic chosen for the conference was aimed at (re)activating and revitalising the academic community’s interest in the valorisation of the educational role and the position of art history, visual arts, and visual culture within various educational systems, institutional frameworks and pedagogical practices, and at affirming art history didactics as a scientific rather than merely a professional field. The relevance and timeliness of the given topic was corroborated by the interest to participate of experts from nine countries – Austria, Croatia, Italy, Germany, Poland, the United States of America, Slovenia, Serbia and the United Kingdom, and the conference proved to be a stimulating platform for initiating discussions and posing new research questions.
