Editor's Notes
- #3: o Fair to say that this has been one of the most energizing and intellectually stimulating projects I can remember o Involves more than 20 AIC staffers – from Curatorial, Conservation, Publications, the Library and Archives, Imaging, Legal and Technology – not to mention our contracted technology developer partners, the IMA Lab , directed by Charlie Moad and Rob Stein o And while mentioning names, I want to acknowledge the great work from Liz Neely for project management, focus and enthusiasm o And the wise and far-sighted support and funding from the Getty
- #4: ｷ So I’m the set up guy o This the shape of our presentation
- #9: Our new Gold Standard for systematic permanent collection catalogue Plenty of “Thump factor” All the components of modern scholarship Years in the making, 400 plus pages, $100 retail Incredibly expensive to produce, retail price only reasonable because of subsidy
- #10: Special Exhibition catalogue Raised the bar on analytical presentation Due to the rich subject material and now well-practiced techniques
- #11: Clear example of how presentation can be transformed in digital interactive environment One more step toward taking the plunge
- #12: To be followed by Pissaro, von Gogh, Gauguin, etc. until the whole of our late 19th c. French paintings is complete
