The document discusses the life cycle of an artist's archive from its creation to ensuring the artist's legacy. It defines what an archive is and explains the value archives provide for research. Institutions look for historically important documents that fit within their collections. When choosing where to place an archive, artists consider long-term relationships, accessibility, conservation capacity, and ensuring the context and appreciation of their work. Artist-endowed foundations can help create a legacy and ensure access to scholars while preserving the archive. Proper placement of an archive is important to impact the artist's legacy into the future.

Falk Meets Online Motivation: A Nationwide Survey ProjectSarah Wambold
In this lightning talk we present a nationwide online Visitor Motivation Study conducted across two dozen institutional websites in 2015/16.
Based on research by John Falk, we used his predictive model of visitor experience outlined in the book as the framework for our survey. In Falk's book "Identity and the Museum Visitor Experience," he identifies five key types of visitors who attend museums and the internal motivations that drive repeat visitation: Experience Seeker; Explorer; Socializer; Recharger; Hobbyist / Professional.
The technical implementation is similar to the one used in a website visitor motivation survey by the Indianapolis Museum of Art. That survey was presented at MW in 2012.
Our project includes simultaneous surveys on 24 museum websites, pairing an IMA-style Google Analytics-powered backend with segments adapted from Falk’s motivation framework. Since the IMA’s presentation at MW 2012, studies following IMA’s methodology have been reproduced at various institutions. Our work is distinct in that it looks at the data in aggregate. Seeking to identify patterns or trends across the sector, we hope to understand the similarities and differences in our audience segments by region, population density, etc, and test Falk’s research as it applies to online audiences.

This document discusses a research project conducted at Trapholt museum in Denmark aimed at studying how curating exhibitions impacts visitors' well-being and understanding of art. The project invited foreign scientists to join workshops and discuss interpretation in museums. It developed a framework to measure art museum well-being based on psychological well-being scales. A case study exhibition called "YOUR exhibition" allowed visitors to curate works and was studied longitudinally to understand how curating influences engagement with art over time and perception of the museum as an institution. Preliminary results found high well-being that requires further examination based on demographics. The research design was modified to combine surveys to better measure impacts of curating.

Village in the city: collaborating on National Photographic Archive exhibitio...CONUL Conference
Village in the City summarizes a collaboration between the National Photographic Archive (NPA) and Dublin City Council (DCC) to hold exhibitions in new locations. The NPA worked with DCC and local artist Jeanette Lowe to display the exhibition "The Flats" about historic tenement housing in both the NPA reading room and the former tenement building, Pearse House.

This document discusses collaborating with artists in museums of contemporary art. It provides case studies of specific collaboration projects between museums and artists. It also examines the theory and implications of new museology and participatory art. New museology views museums as political and identity-shaping spaces. Participatory art aims to be socially inclusive and produce art as part of life rather than discrete artworks. The document recommends that museums embrace social practice art, support progressive forms of art, and mirror external artist collaboration in internal structure and culture.

Significance assessment is the process of researching and understanding the meanings and values of items and collections. It aims to describe how and why an item is significant through a stepped process using primary criteria like historic, artistic, research, and social significance. The outcome is a statement of significance, which is a reasoned summary of an item or collection's importance. It argues how and why the item or collection has value based on primary criteria like associations, condition, and rarity, as well as comparative criteria such as provenance, completeness, interpretive capacity, and representativeness.

READ: My Story
After 13 years at Sony Corporation, I'm taking on the Clipper Round The World Yacht Race - an 11 month circumnavigation of our beautiful planet.
The only snag... I've NEVER sailed before, and now need to fundraise the £45k berth fee.
Here's everything you need to know about how I got wrapped up into the Clipper Race.
I still can't believe that a chance encounter with a few tube POSTERS 3 years ago - coupled with an unexpected REDUNDANCY - led me to apply.... AND get accepted into the world's biggest (and only) amateur Yacht Race.
What a strangely wonderful twist of events for a girl who'd NEVER SAILED before and didn't know her 'Handy Billys' from her 'Jack Stays'. :D

Museums are society's guardians of cultural material for the benefit of present and future generations. They are tasked with storing and caring for collections in perpetuity a challenge for sustainable facility and cost planning. As public perception of museums' value trends away from collections and research toward exhibits and education, the cost of storage remains, growing even as available funding shrinks. This panel examines strategic and innovative approaches to long-term collections storage planning. #DiggingDeeper

1. Galleries have historically served as institutions to display and assign value to art for both commercial and cultural purposes. They originated from private aristocratic collections and later became public museums during the Enlightenment as places to educate the public.
2. In the 19th-20th centuries, galleries innovated their architectural designs and exhibition styles to showcase modern art movements while also aiming to democratize art viewing. However, some artists rejected galleries and made site-specific outdoor artworks.
3. Public sculptures and monuments have faced controversy over their designs, often relating to perceptions of meaning, cost, and whether the art fits its location. Their acceptance can increase over time as the public's understanding of art evolves

“Materials created or received by a person, family or
organization, public or private, in the conduct of their
affairs and preserved because of the Enduring Value
in the information they contain, or as evidence of the
functions and responsibilities of their creator,
especially those materials maintained using the
principles of provenance, original order, and collective
control; permanent records”

Editor's Notes
When I was in graduate school, I had a course on valuation techniques and research methods
How to find comparables for values – size, subject matter, artist
One day, my teacher presented a challenge by asking us to put a value on something completely unique to a particular artist and something not often seen on the auction block: Edward Hopper’s easel.
Though we weren’t given much time to come up with a value or assessment, I found that I was able to present an argument as to what I thought the value of this easel was based on it’s provenance and the role it played in the creation of Edward Hopper’s works.
Provenance added value
It was this exercise that led me to learn about artists’ archives and the completely unique materials of which they
are made
Six months as an intern at an appraisal firm, teaching assistant to examine how an archive is valued or placed
Topic of MA Thesis
In the past few years it has become clear that artists are becoming more aware of ways to secure their legacy, through the creation of foundations and the placement of their archives in museums and collections, similar to how artists think about placing their artwork
Aspen Institute’s 2 Volume National Study on the Artist as Philanthropist and their recent panel at LACMA on Foundations as a New Force in Cultural Philanthropy show increasing interest for artists, foundations and museums
In looking over the available literature on the placement of archives, similar to literature on estate planning, most focus on an artist’s artwork and not their archive
Through numerous interviews with collecting institutions, artists’ foundations, and appraisers, and through looking into current archival practices, I found the following:
The definition of what makes up an archive varies according to appraisers, art historians and archivists
One definition, seen here, provided by the literary appraiser, John Henley, shows how broad an archive can be.
Tom McNulty, my former teacher and current appraiser, expands on this definition with his inclusion of artistic materials, such as paint brushes, easels and sketchbooks
The documents that make up an archive are often ephemeral and difficult to access, yet their use to graduate students and scholars at academic institutions is priceless
Artists, estates and foundations are becoming increasingly aware of importance of institutional placement
Legacy cannot be created without institution’s ability to provide proper research access and care for these unique materials
The Value of an Archive
For many estates and foundations, the monetary value of their archive is not a consideration; rather they’re simply trying to determine the most appropriate institution or repository
Appraisal necessary if foundation trying to shop around
Appraiser much have enough time to go through
Challenges are archives vary in size, condition, content and historical importance
Comparables
Another method, $25/ item / box
In most cases, appraisers are “forced to adopt other criteria such as research value, the potential uses scholars will make of the material in years to come, historical value and cultural value”
These value of the highest importance to collecting institutions, monetary value is subjective, appraiser with experience is important
From an institution’s viewpoint, the two main questions that an archivist or curator must answer in determining whether to acquire an archive are whether the records are historically important, or likely to have enduring value, and are the records appropriate for his or her repository.
Positive answers to these questions are crucial and add research value to the archive, especially to an institution in which these archives may have a personal interest, such as a library in the artist’s hometown or an institution that has a number of the artist’s artworks.
During the course of my interviews at institutions such as the Smithsonian’s Archives of American Art, The Fales Library at NYU, The Getty Research Institute and the library at the Museum of Modern Art, when I asked the question, “What makes an archive valuable to your institution?” research value was the universal response.
For the most part, the “celebrity” of the creator, meaning how famous the artist is or was, does not play a large role as long as the archive is a well-documented and historically significant collection depicting an artistic movement or contains meaningful correspondence between two prominent figures.
When I spoke to Charles Duncan at the Archives of American Art, he mentioned that believes an archive has two sets of creators, the artist to whom the archive belongs and the people associated with that archive through correspondence.
He also mentioned that it especially helps if artists were great or prolific writers, such as Robert Motherwell or Ad Reinhardt.
The research value of an archive is only as valuable as the access to it. When the Roy Lichtenstein Foundation acquired the archives of the well-known but reclusive art world photographer Harry Shunk and his collaborative work with Janos Kender in 2009, they knew that among the thousands of photos they were acquiring, there were many to which some researchers had never previously had access.
These photographs are some of the only remaining images that capture ephemeral projects of over 450 contemporary artists of the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s.
In acquiring the Harry Shunk and Shunk-Kender Photography collection, the RLF effectively rescued this important archive and took responsibility to preserve and place it, all the while keeping within their mission as a foundation to promote Roy Lichtenstein and his contemporaries.
And now, this important archive will be available to researchers internationally, with the Lichtenstein Foundation’s donation of the archive split among the Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles; the Museum of Modern Art in New York; the National Gallery of Art in Washington; the Tate in Britain; and the Pompidou Center in Paris.
A somewhat contentious issue among the appraisers, archivists, curators, and librarians interviewed was whether an archive would ever be sold, valued or acquired in pieces rather than as a whole.
According to most, the integrity of the archive was part of its value, and a partial archive would most likely not be considered for acquisition.
However, some believed that if a part of the archive had a sense of completeness within itself, they might consider acquiring it.
Archives can be even more relevant if an institution has a collecting specialty, a specific art historical movement or era in which they collect heavily.
There are a few reasons why institutions develop specialty collections. One reason is that not all institutions can compete for every archive because of money, staffing or processing deficiencies.
If an institution starts to collect heavily in one specific area, it can better afford and process a smaller number of specialized archives.
For artists and estates, placing an archive into one of these “focused” institutions also provides legitimacy to an artist’s work by providing context within the other artists and movements of the time.
The Fales’ library best represents another reason a library or institution might want to establish itself as the pre-eminent collector in a specific area.
When Fales presented a show of its downtown archival holdings in 2006, it reached “critical mass”, establishing it as the lead repository of “Downtown” archives.
Their “Downtown Collection” suits NYU’s location in lower Manhattan, where the art scene flourished in the 70’s and 80’s.
Many artists of the time lived, and still live, blocks from the campus.
By creating this distinct area of acquisition, NYU has made itself the “Go-to” repository for artists who may fall into this category and may want to donate or sell their archives one day.
Choosing an Institution
In 1997, a roundtable discussion and conference was held involving artists, their families and lawyers to discuss estate planning.
The results of this conference were published in A Visual Artist’s Guide to Estate Planning..
In the 2008 Supplement to this publication, the following were listed among the most important factors for artists and estates when choosing an institution for archival placement: long-term relationships, compatibility with other materials in the collection, accessibility, capacity for conservation, and ability to provide access to scholars, researchers, and the public.
The supplement also established that “one size does not fit all” since artists and estates will each find unique ways of placing archives, especially if the archive is to be spread across different institutions
Targeting an institution with a specialty collection may be the best option for a lesser-known artist, whose works might benefit from the inclusion into such a collection, providing affirmation and context.
Though I have focused on some of the larger collecting institutions, such as the AAA, Fales Library and the GRI, it is important to keep in mind that while it is appealing to assume that one’s work belongs in a national institution like the Smithsonian or a major university library, an artist’s archive might be most appreciated in a smaller institution, such as a library located in the smaller towns where the artist grew up or somewhere affiliated with a school the artist once attended.
Creating a legacy: Artist-Endowed Foundations and Access
Other than placing their archives in an appropriate repository, artists are becoming more aware of creating a legacy through setting up an artist-endowed foundation
Though there are many types of foundations, the clarity of purpose of a foundation is essential. It is important to pick an executor and subsequently trustees who will carry out that mission and be steadfast.”
In the course of a discussion with Dr. Jack Cowart, executive director of the Roy Lichtenstein Foundation, he mentioned that he believes there will be a golden age of the artist-endowed foundation, but foundations need to be wary of starting with such a strong and specific mandate that it be impossible for the foundation to carry out.
If an artist sets up an artist-endowed foundation while he or she is still living, one practice for that foundation may be to maintain and house archives for scholars.
However, foundations today may not be as willing or able to allow as much access to outside scholars as other institutions might be able to provide.
If the foundation cannot properly house the archives or ensure access to scholars, the archives should be donated or sold to a proper institution. Some believe that not allowing the public access to the archives undermines the foundation’s claim to public benefit.
This decision should not be taken lightly: “If the decision is made to sell or to donate archival materials to a library or another research faculty, the artist-endowed foundation must realize that this decision may permanently impact research and writing about the artist.” For scholars, it is important to look into already established archival holdings, including micro-film before journeying to a repository and incurring extra costs.
Ultimately, the foundation will need to decide on the final repository for those archives if, and when, the foundation can no longer properly preserve and promote the artist’s legacy.
After thorough examination of research materials and much discussion with valuation and archive specialists, it is clear that the valuation and placement of artists’ archives is still a challenging issue for appraisers, institutions, and artists.
Because of the opacity of private archival sales, it is important for appraisers and for those who purchase archives for institutions to understand the research, historical and intrinsic values of an archive, as well as its integrity.
Artists’ archives are a valuable resource to researchers, cultural institutions and scholars.
Though researchers can determine the historical or cultural value of these archives, finding a monetary value is not as simple.
The specific monetary value and purchase prices of artists’ archives are rarely published, leaving appraisers in the dark on how to find comparable prices for valuation.
Whether these prices reflect the provenance of the archives and are directly correlated to the “celebrity” or are influenced by meaningful correspondence in the papers, an archive has many sources of value.
Ultimately, the valuation and placement of artists’ archives is an area that is still in need of further study in order to ensure the preservation of artists’ legacies.
