With generous funding from Barbara G. Fleischman, the Archives of American Art partnered with the Center for the History of Collecting in America at the Frick Art Reference Library of The Frick Collection to create a series of 20 oral history interviews of art collectors. The Archives together with the Frick developed a list of potential interview candidates across the US whose unique stories contribute to the history of collecting and patronage in America.
The Archives of American Art has contributed item-level highlights from its collections to the Smithsonian's International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF) Initiative. The project is being spearheaded by the Smithsonian's Digitization Program Office and will be showcased at the upcoming IIIF Conference in Washington, D.C. May 21–25.
