We are pleased to announce that Moderna galerija (Ljubljana) has joined the project “Establishment, Launch, and Optimization of the Unified Information Platform e-Culture”, led by the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Slovenia.
As part of this project, Moderna galerija will upgrade and modernize the RazUme database and program. The RazUme database is the main tool of Moderna galerija’s Archives Department, which has, since its establishment in 1971, systematically collected, processed, preserved, published, and provided access to data on and documentary materials related to exhibitions staged in Slovenia; exhibitions of Slovenian artists abroad; exhibition venues and other spaces of production and presentation of visual art; 20th and 21st century visual artists in Slovenia and Slovenian artists abroad; and writers on 20th and 21st century visual art.
Our focus is on a comprehensive upgrading and updating of the existing RazUme database and program, with the prime objective of developing a modern, stable, and user-friendly online application, based on a technical database and software upgrade, which will include services for remote access to the data.
The updating and optimization of the processes of collecting, processing, preserving, and providing access to data and material will contribute to more efficient work processes in the institution and greatly improve the accessibility of content for the professional public, such as university teachers, researchers, art historians, curators, artists, students, and other interested individuals who use such material and data in their research, exhibitions, publications, and studies.
The project is financed in the frame of the Recovery and Resilience Plan by the Republic of Slovenia and the European Union – NextGenerationEU.
