Translation question?

[Vanessa Prolow]

Academy of Fine Arts sounds like it would be an art school, not a research
academy, and would lead to confusion with the Academy of Arts.

Искусствознание includes all forms of art. This program at a college in
North Carolina would support just using "art studies":

This is a contemporary institute of искусствознание, and to my
understanding of what they do, it would point to "art and cultural studies"
as another possibility: http://sias.ru/institute/
