The Slovene Art Historians' Society, established in 1921 by Izidor Cankar, publishes Art History Journal. The first number of the journal was published the same year when Cankar was its first editor. The Art History Journal is published once a year and it presents the recent research results of Slovene art historians dealing with Slovene or international art historian topics and also the best articles of the students at the Department of Art History, University of Ljubljana.
History
Since its inception the society has published the Art History Journal along with a regular series of other works by art historians as they have gradually mapped the topography of Slovene art. The gazette Bilten SUZD is a serial publication that is issued five times a year in electronic form. Short scientific papers are reviewed. Another bulletin Library SUZD is conceived in 1997 to publish papers from conferences of Slovene art historians.
This scientific bulletin has one of the longest tradition among art history publications. The publishing stopped for a brief period of time near the end of the Second World War and few years after the war. In 1951 the counting of each number of the journal started from the beginning.
