Goals and

A Digital Strategy is nothing without clearly defined goals.

These measures are the concrete steps that we have already taken and will continue to take as part of our digital strategy.

The Pinakotheken on the internet: website relaunch with a new corporate design: all Pinakotheken on one website

2009

From the Annual Report 2007—2010: “As of 2009, people no longer use analogue photography. Lab work has been pushed to the background by – no less time-consuming – digital image processing. Ectachromes and black-and-white prints have been replaced by computer printouts and CDs. But the labs have not been dissolved: they are still needed for X-rays as well as for orders from the large historical inventory of negatives. To this day, the majority of the holdings of the Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen are documented only as black and white photographs. [...] At present, two Hasselblad cameras are available for high-resolution photographs and a digital Nikon camera is available for reportage photography.”

2004

The entire photo library with more than 20000 black-and-white photos is digitised and integrated into MuseumPlus.

2003

After a trial phase involving only a small network, the MuseumPlus database program with a total of 80 desktop PCs is put into operation.
From the annual report 2003—2006: “A prerequisite for the comprehensive use of the database was the wiring of the entire administration wing of the Neue Pinakothek and the integration of the Alte Pinakothek and the Pinakothek der Moderne into the network. In the meantime, the network of more than 80 terminals is used for internal and external communication via e-mail and the Internet. Like all new communication channels, the database has become an integral part of everyday life in almost all departments of the Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen

As Dr. Martin Schawe already anticipated in the annual report 2003—2006: “The long-term goal is to use the database to make the entire holdings of the Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen available to a larger public via the Internet.”
