Wikipedia Edit-a-thon: Selections from the Guggenheim Collection | |
---|---|
The Guggenheim's second Wikipedia Edit-a-thon was held on Tuesday, May 19, 2015 in the media labs of the Sackler Center at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City.
The Guggenheim Museum is proud to donate 100 images of artworks to Wikipedia / Wikimedia Commons, including selections from the museum’s collection by Edgar Degas, Paul Klee, Vincent van Gogh, and others. The event is an opportunity to explore the history of the Guggenheim’s collection, the impact of these works within the artistic movements of their time, and their legacy and influence on future artists. Using these 100 images as a starting point, we invite you to help enhance the scholarship and understanding of key artists and works in the museum’s collection. For last year's event, please see /2014. |
