MARCH 13, 2013

Visitor-contributed photos surround a collection piece in Carnegie Museum of Art's Oh Snap! so I was intrigued when I heard about a recent success from Jeffrey Inscho, Web and Digital Media Manager at Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh.

The "Magritte and Contemporary Art: The Treachery of Images" exhibit at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art manages to both celebrate and betray fair use at the same time. The anti remix message: The exhibition policy on photos: no photos are allowed in the exhibit. It's really out of our hands.

It's rare that a participatory museum project is more than a one-shot affair. But next month, Britain Loves Wikipedia will commence--the third instance of a strange and fascinating collaborative project between museums and the Wikipedia community (Wikimedians).

The NYT article is about a photography show by artist Thomas Struth at the Marian Goodman Gallery in Manhattan. Struth takes photographs of museum-goers as they gaze, pick their noses, chat on cell phones, and fidget in front of classically great works of art. What are we looking for in a museum? We look for ourselves.

For me, that meant photography, which I have done since I was eight, and traveling, which I love. In order to get a book published, I was told I had to have a museum exhibit. Fortunately, the Field Museum in Chicago mounted an exhibit of the photographs for In Her Hands. At each step, I have been learning.

So on a very simple level, I’m sure most of us have seen a 360 photo on Facebook. You don’t have to have any photography experience, any videography experience because I don’t and I made a 360 video and it was really pretty cool. And then does your audience mainly like photo, or video or, text? Totally free.
