Welcome to the highly official blog of SMK.
Lewis Hine, Icarus, Empire State Building, 1930, acc. no.1987.1100.486. The Met, public domain.The evidence is as clear as it is surprising (to some): Easy online access to museum collections makes them all the more interesting to see offline. What have we done to deserve this miracle?
Pieter Aertsen, The Fat Kitchen. An Allegory, 1565–1575. SMK — Statens Museum for Kunst.Hi, we’re Sofie and Brittany and as interns on the SMK Open project we’ve been given, oh you know the most modest task: to create an overview of SMK’s ongoing digitization of the collections. As interns with fresh eyes we were asked to gather information from all corners of this large institution in order to create a simple factsheet so everyone can be on the same page when talking about the four-year project SMK Open. Seriously, how difficult could that be?
