Linda Seckelson called the meeting to order and explained that the incoming ARLIS/NA President asked Linda to explore reestablishing the Decorative Arts SIG.
We reviewed the ideas Stephen Van Dyk (Linda disseminated via ARLIS listserv prior to the meeting).
Date: Tue, 16 Apr 2013 14:57:07 +0000 From: "Seckelson, Linda" < HYPERLINK "mailto:Linda.Seckelson@METMUSEUM.ORG" Linda.Seckelson@METMUSEUM.ORG> Subject: FW: Decorative Arts ar ARLIS Dear Colleagues: Dec arts are alive and well, and used to be at ARLIS .... There was a "Dec Arts Round Table" (known as DART) which morphed into the Dec Arts Special Interest Group (SIG). This SIG has been inactive for several years, and we have a chance to revive it if we want to. Interested ARLIS attendees are encouraged to attend a meeting on Friday April 26, 2013 4:45pm - 5:45pm in Ballroom A at the Convention Center to chart our future (if we have one). I've been tapped to facilitate this gathering, which I hope will involve lively discussion and identify a few projects or programs to work on. Here are some discussion points. Stephen Van Dyk at the Cooper Hewitt Museum Library (Smithsonian) was helpful in making some of these suggestions. He is with us in spirit and will be at next year's conference in Washington. If any of these issues excite you, please join us and think about taking an active role! Dec Arts-focused programs for the DC conference (2013) * what are some ideas exploration Digitization: * who is digitizing what? * what standard repository is housing digitized items? Internet Archive, etc. * need for a site-finding aid for identifying where digitized versions of partial sets are digitized by different institutions? * need to digitize more ceramic/metal/furniture/ other manufacturer makers' mark resources (the one digitized by the Cooper Hewitt is the most visited online resource from the Smithsonian Institution Libraries) Trade Catalogs * essential tools for Dec Arts - how are they used? * special things to know about acquiring, cataloging, housing, access * develop an ARLIS session on this subject?
Designers - Primary source materials * who collects primary source material on designers (industrial, graphic, interior, etc.)- create a guide? * plan a session on the idiosyncracies of dealing with this kind of material? World's Fairs and Dec Arts * always a challenging topic to research * develop a session? * who has definitive collections? Blog on new Dec Arts publications, resources (see the CHM website for the object-of-the-day feature ( HYPERLINK "http://www.cooperhewitt.org/object-of-the-day" \t "_blank" http://www.cooperhewitt.org/object-of-the-day) or ? Finding stuff * need an international directory of decorative arts resources (another way of dealing with "who collects...") * do we need reference guides/pathfinders (etc.) on other topics? MORE??? Your ideas, please! Best, Linda Linda Seckelson
Plan a Session for Washington DC
Trade catalogs have not been covered recently at ARLIS. It takes special information to catalog, house, and make them available. The Smithsonian has a great collection; so does Winterthur Decided to ask Stephen if he wants to organize a session on trade catalogs for DC
Others are considering an Artist Books open house in DC (Hirshorn, SAM, National Portrait Gallery, LC
Compile our own Guide to Marks
Identify critical books
Create a bibliography
We can use the list to influence in-house digitization projects
Collate and list websites that provide free access guides to makers marks
We agreed to start compiling our own Guide to Marks including resources that are available online
Stage 1
Formulate a charge
By the end of summer (Labor Day) get a summary started
Stage 2
Survey collections and make a list of reference books
Decide which ones are important or worthy of becoming part of a bibliography of important marks books
Create subject categories OR have a tab for each collection (who has what)
Create citations
Questions:
What do we want in a citation? Basic author, title, year of publication; not a full bibliographic description (just enough to search)
Are we duplicating Arntzen & Rainwater*? Digital Library for American Culture? HYPERLINK "http://decorativearts.library.wisc.edu/" http://decorativearts.library.wisc.edu/
Add online resources in Stage 1? Do we add those with commercial interests?
Where do we collect the information?
Excel document
Google docs
What are the boundaries?
Not material culture
Not agricultural implements
Is it marks up to today?
Concentrate on what is published
What is online already? How reliable is it?
Stage 3:
Books with hallmarks at the back
European sources (ARLIS/UK)
Possibly we could submit the information to the Getty Research Portal
Who is doing what now? How do we communicate within our group
Informal wiki
Web presence
Inventory silo projects and communicate
For example, create a digitization registry or database so other libraries know what has been digitized: a) dont duplicate; b) what unique materials are available to be shared?
Worlds Fairs
The literature is so extensive. Where are the strong collections?
Consider creating a LibGuide to track strong collections focusing on seminal fairs to share information
(RISS has a repository of fine arts LibGuides)
Chris offered to host our information on his website
Can we call on the listserv to contribute details about their projects?
Decided to leave the Worlds Fairs project for another time
Consider digitizing classic reference books such as American Art Annual 1898-mid 1920s; British Art Annual 1880s
Consider establishing a guide to open access art and design journals
Do we want to exist as the Decorative Arts SIG? YES
Does anyone want to moderate for next year? The moderator would check in monthly with the group and set an agenda for our project.
We agreed to set one project we care about, set goals, and work through the year: Guide to Marks
