Founded in 1972, Kunsten Museum of Modern Art Aalborg is currently one of the most renowned art museums in Denmark. Its collection houses over 4000 works of art, mostly post-1900, by Danish and foreign artists. Kunsten wanted to leverage digital technologies in order to connect with their audience, protect their content and cultural assets, and support their mission to a greater extent.

MuCoDi enables Kunsten to:

• Digitize all of the museum’s objects in order to preserve them and make it easier to share the information about particular pieces between museums. Most of the artworks are not exhibited and by going online, the museum has the possibility to share all of its artworks globally with a larger audience rather than only people visiting the actual museum.

• Create advanced search tool synced with the SARA database to offer impeccable experience for the interested parties.

• Build an user-friendly management software which would allow to continuously sync artworks from SARA to Linkfactory’s Museum Collection Displayer.

• Become more accessible for Kunsten’s target audiences: museum professionals, schools, donors, and foundations.

• Create more awareness about the collections, drive more traffic online and get more visitors.

As a result, Museum Collection Displayer (MuCoDi) has been built.
