Es Baluard launches the online platform ‘Arxiu Balears’ at Instituto Cervantes as an activity around Arco Madrid 2014

The “Arxiu Balears” was presented at the Instituto Cervantes headquarters in Madrid in the presence of different professionals of this sector, interested audience and press.

From this moment on, the first phase of this digital platform can be consulted publicly through the Es Baluard’s website or http://vimeo.com/channels/arxiubalears.

The “Arxiu Balears” is a digital platform of Es Baluard for the knowledge of creators and agents linked to the museum’s collection and the artistic environment of the Balearics. The aim is to integrate the research and documentation tasks made by the museum’s Artistic area with the direct testimony of those creators and agents linked to this with the aim of register memory and present to contribute to its diffusion and conservation. A manager of contents will configure in the future the whole database working with the idea of an open source and public online file.

Until now, they’ve been made 30 interviews of which have been edited those to Pep Bonet, Diana Coca, Toni Catany, Joan Fontcuberta, Perejaume, Francesca Martí, Bernardí Roig, Amparo Sard and Eulàlia Valldosera. In addition, the Museu d’Art Contemporani d’Eivissa (MACE) collaborated with this project.
