Guggenheim Launches Collaboration with ARTstor
Contemporary Art:

Southeast Asia
Mix Perspectives. Amplify Voices. Propel Ideas. Guggenheim UBS MAP Global Art Initiative.

More than 750 high-resolution images of artworks
from the Guggenheim's permanent collection are now available for educators,
scholars, curators, librarians, and students in ARTstor's Digital Library.
Establishing the Guggenheim's presence on
ARTstor, a resource available
by subscription to nonprofit organizations, was an extensive two-year project involving the
museum's curatorial, library and archives, legal, and licensing departments. The collaboration documents the museum's holdings in modern and
contemporary art by artists such as Louise Bourgeois, Paul Cézanne, Marc
Chagall, Willem de Kooning, Paul Klee, Robert Mapplethorpe, Claes Oldenburg,
Cindy Sherman, and Vincent van Gogh, among many others.
Visitors
can sort images by date, title, and relevance, zoom in and pan
images, export detailed caption information, as well as print images and save them to
PowerPoint and KeyNote.
This release of
collection work images is the first of a projected 7,000 images of art,
exhibition installation views, and architecture from the foundation. A second
release later this fall will include 5,000 installation views spanning from 1990s
to the present from the Guggenheim Museum in New York, more than 1,000 installations
views from affiliate museums, and 200 historical and
contemporary photographs documenting the architecture of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York.
ARTstor's Digital Library serves more than 1,350
universities, community colleges, museums, libraries, and K–12 schools in 46
countries worldwide. The
Guggenheim's collection will be updated regularly as a growing archive to
include additional artwork images and installation views as they become
available.
