Archives Weren’t Built In a Day: Artist Archives in Rome-New York

We are pleased to present Archives Weren’t Built In a Day: Artist Archives Rome-New York. Our presentation will cover our findings from the archival visits  conducted with the INFO 697 class Artists Archives: Rome/NY. During this presentation we will provide some background on three individual Artists’ Archives, which we chose to compare. Then, we will discuss our framework,  how we decided on what aspects from the framework to present on, and what conclusions we can draw from the answers to those questions. Finally, we will summarize our findings and suggest areas for future research.
