About this award
The Cleveland Museum of Art received a $630,592 Project Grant award from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) Museums for America program (CFDA 45.301) to create and share 600 3D photogrammetry images of works from its 63,000-object permanent collection. The museum will engage a contractor to photograph the objects and produce the 3D models, which will be made accessible on the museum's website and through host repositories. This initiative will advance the museum's open access goals by providing high-quality 3D representations of its artworks to institutions and audiences worldwide, promoting responsible preservation and caretaking of these cultural assets.
Description
Once created, these images will serve audiences through in-person interactives and virtual resources. The cross-departmental museum team will finalize the object list and engage with a contractor to commission the 3D models, which will involve photographing the objects, feeding the images into a 3D software program, and then conducting a complex series of steps to produce the model and animation. Completed photogrammetry images will be available on the museum website and through host repositories. As a result, the museum will advance its open access initiative by making the models accessible to institutions of all sizes and types and promote responsible caretaking and preservation of cultural artworks.
