“Several new ventures are putting the museum online by offering viewers a virtual interactive experience. Which brings us to the question: Are we heading for a digital reset of the museum?”
“The pandemic may have pushed Bengaluru’s Museum of Art & Photography’s (MAP) plans to house itself in a state-of-the-art facility to 2021, but it has started welcoming audiences virtually.”
“The much-anticipated Museum of Art & Photography (MAP), which was expected to open on December 5, in a five-storey building located in the heart of Bengaluru, was launched digitally on Saturday after months of hectic remote working amid the pandemic.”
“The physical space on Kasturba Road, which is still under construction, is all set to include art galleries, a research and education centre, library and auditoriums, but MAP has, like many museums abroad, already taken the experience online.”
“As MAP (the Museum of Art and Photography) launches virtually, the 52-year-old Poddar tells Neelam Raaj why the barriers between high art and low art need to come down.”
“”The city of Bengaluru in Southern India has a new private museum, the Museum of Art and Photography. Asian Art Newspaper looks at its mission and collections before its virtual opening this December.”
