Argo, the Journal of the Slovene Museums, is the most important professional publication of Slovene museum experts dealing with art history and the museology of the ancient and the medieval periods. Papers are in Slovenian with abstracts in English. The journal is published twice yearly and distributed within international museum networks.
Originally established in 1962 by the National Museum of Slovenia as a bulletin of archaeology, art history, and museology, in 1964 Argo became a specialist journal dealing with art history and the museology of the ancient and the early medieval periods. In 1971 the Association of Slovene Museums became a co-publisher and the journal subsequently broadened its focus to the entire field of museology and museum activities. Later, in 1979, the Slovene Museum Society also joined as a co-publisher. Since 2006 the National Museum of Slovenia receives the funding for the publication of the journal from the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Slovenia directly. Co-publishers are still in editorial board.
Back issues are available and can be purchased at the museum store of the National Museum of Slovenia or ordered by e-mail. The table of contents for issues from 2004 can be found on the website of the National Museum.
