ARTstor
In July 2005, ARTstor announced the release into the ARTstor Digital
Library of more than 25,000 images from the former AMICO Library. Now an
additional eight institutions, formerly part of AMICO, have contributed a
total of 55,000 images to ARTstor. This brings the number of images in
ARTstor from institutions which were formerly AMICO members to
approximately 80,000.
The new institutional contributors to ARTstor include:
Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute
Dallas Museum of Art
Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco
Indianapolis Museum of Art
Library of Congress
Los Angeles County Museum of Art
Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
Philadelphia Museum of Art
While most of these works were originally part of the AMICO library, some
museums have contributed additional content that was not originally part of
AMICO and/or have provided ARTstor with improved images and associated
cataloging.
To locate these new images in ARTstor, we suggest using “AMICO” as a
keyword when searching. For best results, combine “AMICO” with additional
search criteria, such as repository or creator name.
All of the following former AMICO members are now contributing content to
ARTstor:
Asia Society
The Cleveland Museum of Art
Dallas Museum of Art
Davis Museum and Cultural Center, Wellesley College
Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco
The Frick Collection and Art Reference Library
George Eastman House
Indianapolis Museum of Art
Library of Congress
Los Angeles County Museum of Art
The Metropolitan Museum of Art
The Minneapolis Institute of Arts
Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
Philadelphia Museum of Art
Smithsonian American Art Museum
Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute
The Walters Art Museum
Victoria and Albert Museum
We anticipate making further announcements shortly about the release into
the ARTstor Digital Library of images from The Detroit Institute of the
Arts, The Art Institute of Chicago, and the Terra Foundation for American
Art.
