Abstract
Pavuša Vežić, eminent Zadar art historian and heritage conservationist was born in 1947 in Makarska. After graduating art history at former Faculty of Philosophy in Zadar, he worked on a number of important conservationist campaigns in Zadar, such as the rotund of St. Donatus, basilica of St. Thomas', Nassis, house, Citadel fort, St. Stephen's basilica, Zadar cathedral as well as on a number of important mediaeval and early modern buildings in Zadar region. These conservation and protection campaigns were accompanied by a number of academic achievements since direct contact with heritage had become the natural environment for research and insight into number of problems and questions that resulted with new comprehension and interpretations. Along with considerable conservationist career, Vežić received his PhD in 1994 at the Faculty of Philosophy in Zadar with thesis entitled The Episcopal complex in Zadar. In 1999, he joined Zadar art history Department as faculty member, where he finally received tenure in 2012. Professor Vežić's academic focus is in the early Christian and early mediaeval architecture as well as on questions of conservation and protection of heritage, in which fields he had published a number of widely recognized monographs, scientific and professional articles. Vežić's lectures are also affectionately remembered by generations of his students as well as citizens of Zadar who attended his public discourses on a variety of topics related to Zadar architectural and artistic heritage.
