Since the first issue in 2008, through subsequent volumes of the annual, the editors of “Sacrum et Decorum” have endeavoured to meet the expectations of the academic community of art historians and scholars working in related disciplines, among whom there has been a growing interest in research on sacred art of the last two centuries and the possibility of publishing its results in a separate journal that takes into account the special nature of the field.
Area and sections of the journal
We publish texts in the fields of art sciences and heritage protection and conservation relating to:
- Christian sacred art of the 19th and 21st centuries
- works inspired by this religion
- metaphysical issues in art
- research exploring 19th - 21st century sacred art in a broad cultural context
The journal consists of original peer-reviewed articles preceded by an editorial introductory text posted in the “Studies” section.
The “Materials” section also includes reviewed articles, the value of which lies primarily in showing a new research problem to which the editors would like to draw the attention of readers and other researchers.
The periodical also publishes reports, reviews and source materials.
Starting with the 12th volume, in our magazine you can read the artists’ essays on their own work in the new series “Miscellanea”.
