Tomáš Winter studied art history at the Faculty of Arts, Charles University (Ph.D. 2006). During his studies, he began to work at the IAH CAS where he still works today. He focuses on the history of Czech and international art of the 19th and 20th centuries and on the relationship between European and non-European art and the questions of caricature, folk art and “low” genres.
