The Internet has exploded as a source for the latest results of academic research, and a location for artistic creativity. To help you keep up with this wealth of information, your search of selected databases in CSA Illumina now retrieves Web sites relating to your area of interest, in addition to our bibliographic records. Since 2001, the Web Resources Related to the Arts Database has grown into a collection of over 11,000 high-quality web sites that are hand-picked and indexed by our editors.
Visual Resources
The editors at ARTbibliographies Modern (ABM) are conscious of the need for
access to high quality images of art works, and are working hard to bring
you the latest visual resources to complement your bibliographic search.
We have researched museum, association, artist and academic Web resources,
selected images and other useful portions of the Web sites and indexed
them to compile our growing database of Web resources. In particular,
we are indexing museum collections to bring you links to art works by
modern and contemporary artists. Collections in the process of being indexed
are:
- the Museum of Modern Art in New York
- the Guggenheim museums
- the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art
- the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles
- the Tate galleries
- the Pompidou Centre in Paris
- the National Gallery of Australia in Canberra
How it Works
- Your search of Web resources retrieves citation records that include
the URL of sites selected and indexed by our editors.
- Click the URL to display a Web site within our customized interface.
- Our interface allows you to visit the sites retrieved by your search
one after the other.
- A 'frames' structure provides a display area for a remote Web site
and another for a scrolling list of the sites retrieved from our collection
of Web resources.
- Choose the title of the next site you wish to review, and it will
appear within the main display area.
- A third display area maintains a link back to your search results
making it easy for you to return to a set of records retrieved from
another database.
