Linked Art II: Developing Community, Practice, and Scholarship

“联动艺术II：发展社区、实践和奖学金”汇集了来自英国和美国一些顶尖美术馆的大学研究人员和专家。该项目将与学者和从业人员接触，强调联网收集作为数据提供的机会，并确定在哪些方面需要新的数字方法和工具来实现新的研究。关联艺术II将与文化机构合作，研究结构化数据如何有助于应对数字挑战，包括改善收藏品的可获得性，增加向公众提供的机构和材料的范围和多样性。该项目的基础是将关联数据开发和应用于文化遗产收藏，重点是艺术品及其出处。Linking Data将为这些丰富的收藏品提供一个多模式数字学术平台；Linking Art II将继续建立合作伙伴关系，制定国际议程，通过共同的数据模型实现这一平台，为未来的协作实施和研究调查建设能力。在这项工作的第一阶段，形成了一个研究网络，将合作设计共同数据模型的专家聚集在一起。Linked Art II项目继续这项工作，但也寻求通过一系列可行性研究和概念实施来试验和测试该模型。这些“样本”将与项目合作伙伴和更广泛的联系的艺术社区合作开发；将通过公开呼吁合作来选出两个样本。该项目将在链接的艺术网站上发布样本的文档和解释，以便其他人能够了解和了解链接艺术采用的实用性。该项目由牛津大学和J.Paul Getty Trust牵头，来自英国和美国的项目合作伙伴包括：美国货币学会、国家美术馆(伦敦)、国家美术馆(华盛顿特区)、纽菲尔德、费城艺术博物馆、史密森学会、伦敦艺术大学、维多利亚和阿尔伯特博物馆以及耶鲁大学英国艺术中心。该项目将通过一系列外展研讨会，以易于理解和容易获得的形式传播网络的讨论要点和结论，推动英美两国文化遗产界采用关联艺术。并使更广泛的行业受益于Linking Art在发展过程中提供的变革性变革。

'Linked Art II: Developing Community, Practice, and Scholarship' brings together University researchers with experts from some of the leading art museums in the UK and US. The project will engage with scholars and practitioners to highlight the opportunities afforded by connected collections as data, and establish where new digital methods and tools are needed to enable novel research. Linked Art II will engage with cultural institutions to examine how structured data can contribute towards digital challenges, including improving the accessibility of collections, and increasing the range and diversity of institutions and material available to the public.The foundation of the project is the development and application of Linked Data to cultural heritage collections, with an emphasis on works of art and their provenance. Linked Data will provide a platform for multi-modal digital scholarship across these rich collections; Linked Art II will continue a partnership setting an international agenda to realise this platform through a common data model, building capacity for future collaborative implementations and research investigations.In the first phase of this work, a research network was formed to bring together experts who are collaborating on the design of the common data model. The Linked Art II project continues this work, but also seeks to trial and test the model through a series of feasibility studies and proof of concept implementations.These 'exemplars' will be developed in collaboration with project partners and the wider Linked Art community; two exemplars will be selected via an open call for collaboration. The project will publish documentation and explanation of the exemplars on the Linked Art website so that others can understand and learn about the practicalities of Linked Art adoption. The project is led by the University of Oxford and the J. Paul Getty Trust, with project partners from the UK and US including: the American Numismatic Society, the National Gallery (London), the National Gallery of Art (Washington D.C.), Newfields, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Smithsonian Institution, the University of the Arts London, the Victoria & Albert Museum, and the Yale Center for British Art.The project will advocate Linked Art adoption amongst the cultural heritage community in the UK and US through a series of outreach workshops, disseminating discussion points and conclusions from the network in easily understood and readily available forms, and enabling the wider sector to benefit from the transformative step-change offered by Linked Art as it evolves.
