Culture Index exists to catalog cultural institutions online, and highlight the best practices that inspire us.
Launching with a focus on museums and building from there, we are a resource for both research and discovery. Browse information about online communications, and discover ideas with examples of what’s possible for cultural institutions in the digital space.
As a community project facilitated by Base, we invite you to use and contribute to this growing resource.
Artists Space
Our name “Artists Space” distills our mission into its most essential form with a limitlessness which has proven supremely generative. Our early logo was simply a blank square with a large “A” emblazoned on it, a diagram that is both utterly simple and endlessly complex. Which artists? What space? What public? Our cultural stakes are particularly volatile at this moment, and how these questions are framed and answered is an important responsibility and one that Artists Space has been unwaveringly committed to throughout its 50 year history.
