Over the course of the Collections as Data: Part to Whole project, Carnegie Museum of Art has not only increased points of access as related to the Teenie Harris collection data, but we are currently expanding our role as stewards by building in-gallery interactives for the public. Significantly, new information gathered from these interactives will then become a part of the collections as data that is then provided back into the community, beginning the cycle all over again. In the fall of 2019, CMOA will open a semi-permanent exhibition and community engagement space in its permanent galleries. This will be a dedicated Teenie Harris gallery space for exhibitions, community relations, and the omni-directional exchange of information with the public. This space will be staffed periodically by “citizen archivists” who will have a public facing presence to aid patrons in research and retrieval of images, as well as collecting image information of the who/where/when/why of Harris images. In addition to prints and gallery panels, these interactives will allow patrons to engage with faceted search, heat maps using GIS technology, personal and family identification using facial recognition technology, and public history using an amalgamation of newly developed programming.
Session Type30-Minute Session (Presentation or Case Study)
Chatham House RuleNo
Key Outcomes
After this session, attendees will walk away with concrete examples of how to consciously uplift the voice of under documented communities simultaneously within the walls of powerful institutions. All while using technology that has traditionally silenced those same under documented voices.
Speakers
Session Leader : Dominique Luster, Teenie Harris Archivist, Carnegie Museum of Art
Co-Presenter : Charlene Foggie-Barnett, Teenie Harris Archive Specialist, Carnegie Museum of Art
