----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Colleagues: Perhaps because of the ConnAP (Connecticut Artists Project) database under construction here at the Art & Design Library at the University of Connecticut, we have found that we need information on artists when they migrate from one part of the United States to another. We know of some large documentation projects such as those in Ohio (a number of CT artists migrated to Ohio), California, Illinois, Texas, and Massachusetts, but are there other more modest (Arizona) or even large projects around the United States that we don't know about? Some projects have print publications, but how are they being updated or enlarged? What about the large populous states that have or had regional documentation (Southern vs Northern California?) that is now perhaps out of date----who do we contact or where do we go for the such documentation. How do city artist projects fit into the state project mix? What about state artist commissions databases for contemporary artists? How do we mesh the "who is who" artists with the "who was who" artists? Are state artist projects only for historical "who was who" artists? Are there, or should there be, state coordinators for such projects? Perhaps an ARLIS/NA hosted website bringing all these projects together under each state name would be enough, or do we also need a session on state artist documentation projects underway in the United States? Do we need a session on Southern California artist projects to kick-off such a web resource? I think I am willing to work on such a session or help with the thought process on what we might like included in an ARLIS/NA website on state artist projects. Does anyone else in ARLIS/NA land want to help with such an effort? Just testing the water! Thomas J.
