We are the Archive of Fine Arts (Archiv výtvarného umění), a non-profit organization founded in 1984 as part of the activities of Galerie H in Kostelec nad Černými lesy.
The Archive manages and processes an extensive collection of documents related primarily to Czech and Slovak visual art of the 20th and 21st centuries, including exhibition catalogues, monographs, invitations, books, journals, press releases, and other materials. We are the largest specialized collection of this kind in the Czech Republic.
The collection is preserved in our storage facilities in Nusle, Prague 4, and is catalogued and made accessible through the abART information system (www.isabart.org).
