Italian Museum of Contemporary Art Estaque, the harbor in oil George Braque 1906; France
o way on the web. The FB-Museum has a very important role to play here, it
acts as a curator of the exhibitions with sole purpose of making them organic
and present with right information to an eager , wide audience out there
o Secondly, the "museum set-up" is very easy to understand..It’s almost like
setting up a facebook page. And the curated, organized art works are
presented in its very real actual form.. All the paraphernalia like architectural
barriers, bulletproof glass, church or stadium lighting that at times change
the look and feel of the works. Also other factors like walls colored in a
dissonant way compared to the work of art, oversized gigantism, tourist
files, stratospheric cost tickets .don’t exists on a FB-Museum. Art is for all!
o Another aspect, which is interesting is that the users and observers can share,
like, dislike, comment and discuss the work with either their friends or with
other people. The interpretation of any work, either a book or an art work,
given by the readers is also very important. On the website or FB Museum,
one can criticize, confront, discuss which might open up a new interpretive
canons not traversed by the "professional critics."
