Conference: 
MW2010
Institution: 
NRW KULTURsekretariat (Cultural secretary of northrhine-westfalia, Germany
Designer: 
Concept by art & sciences, Munich
Why: 

Regarding my profession as universitarian researcher in the field of modern art I am interested in getting immediate and profound information about artists and museums, looking at their local and global dimension. The multilayered structure of the platform perfectly allows to locate international reknown artists in a regional museum's landscape, to establish historical contexts far away from a monocausal style-oriented logic. Excellent research tools create motivating paths to new dimensions of art historical method. Furthermore, the platform provides scientific texts of museums curator's with detailed analysis of work structures, techniques a.s.o. revealing museum's professional knowledge which would otherwise require a much more complicated approach.
