Art in Context: Identity, Ethics, and Insight
Friday, Nov 19
1:00–3:30 p.m.
Virtual Event
|
Join us as we explore how identity is managed—or not—across a variety of disciplines throughout the cultural
heritage community.
Topics will range from ethics; how to manage identities in our fast-paced digital landscape; how to leverage new, more democratic technologies while incorporating long-established authorities; and what we can do to prepare for the
future of identity management, archival practices, cataloging, and other information management concepts in order to make the most connections between our cultural data and create a more diverse narrative.
Free RSVP required by Nov 1.

The Art Information Commons creates new possibilities for our audiences to discover meaningful connections between our art objects and related contextual
resources, supports broader scholarship, and establishes the museum as a vital and reliable source of accessible, authoritative information. Support for this project has been generously provided by The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
