| Sumario: | The online presence of the Argentine National Fine Arts Museum (MNBA) cannot be conceived without considering the technological and communicative innovations that have transformed museum studies over the last decades. This institution has, therefore, adopted a number of specific virtual tools to display its art heritage. This work aims to revise in a preliminary and exploratory way some constructions within website design and the tools offered by Google Art Project, in order to then focus on the online display of works of art as series of pixels. The most distinctive features of this type of heritage lead us to a specific way of exhibiting art collections in the virtual space. The International Council of Museums (ICOM) considers that museums should look out for their physical and virtual exhibits presenting trustworthy information, in accordance with the aims, policies, and purposes set by the above mentioned institution. Thus, the aim of this outline will be to consider the implications and the strategies used by the MNBA to exhibit its art heritage online, by means of both its own website www.mnba.gob.ar and the Google Art Project platform. |
