Virtual Exhibitions for Research

Virtual exhibitions support academic research by providing controlled digital environments that present artworks, archives and interpretive material in structured, accessible ways.

Virtual exhibitions help researchers:

• Test curatorial narratives
• Present practice based inquiry
• Share digital research outcomes
• Provide visual appendices for publications
• Bring together material from multiple institutions

Presenting fragile or inaccessible works

Virtual formats allow access to:

• Works in storage
• Out of circulation archives
• Large scale installations
• Geographically dispersed collections

Integration with Online Exhibitions

Online Exhibitions add:

• Metadata
• Long form texts
• Provenance and bibliographies
• Research layers
• Cross referenced records

A platform for long term scholarship

Virtual exhibitions remain accessible and can be updated as research evolves.
