Archives and Digitization

Kept since 1992 at CRDAV – Rome's Visual Arts Research and Documentation Centre at the MACRO Contemporary Art Museum – the private papers of Futurist artist Enrico Prampolini are going to be submitted to a full digitization process.

The next issue of EQUIPèCO, a journal for artistic and cultural research and documentation, will carry a short essay of mine, running under the title: Digitizing the Prampolini Archive – An Approach to Time and Figures.

Contemporary Art in Rome

MACRO's multimedia library management has been just assigned to CRDAV - the Visual Arts Research and Documentstion Centre. Rome's top documentation hub for contemporary art thus acquires about 20,000 new volumes, and perhaps over 2,000 videos, gaining even greater significance today. -- Alessandro Califano (via twitter, @a_califano)
