https://archive-it.org/blog/art-on-the-web/Every day, significant cultural and artistic production occurs globally across the web (e.g., digital art, exhibition or gallery websites, news, social media, and more). As a publication medium that can be both a vehicle of information about art as well as the art itself, the web presents challenges of scale and complexity for those that seek to preserve contemporary art history and integrate it in research and teaching. In this interactive workshop, jointly sponsored by ARLIS/NA and the Internet Archive and the New York Art Resource Consortium (NYARC)’s
CARTA program, participants will be introduced to web archives as a primary source for art history, gain familiarity with web archive research use cases, and acquire hands-on experience creating web archive collections and computationally analyzing web archives - including the growing CARTA web archive of 700+ online art resources and art history publications within 8 topical collections: Art Criticism; Art Fairs and Events; Art Galleries; Art History/Scholarship; Artists Websites; Arts Education; Arts Organizations; and Auction Houses..
