An artist’s legacy should be built on cultural contribution.
Culturally significant artists and their families who are less financially endowed or otherwise left without a thorough way to preserve their legacy, leave a selective history to represent the culture.
Without the guidance of adequate cataloging and financial planning, most artworks left posthumously by under-known artists will be dropped from the historical record.
NNEALP secures legacies
Northern New England Artist Legacy Project (NNEALP) aims to work with significant yet under-known artists and their families to preserve the artists’ legacies.
A formal study is required to develop a platform and business model, a pilot to serve as a resource center for all.
The people behind the project
NNEMoCA
The Northern New England Museum of Contemporary Art (NNEMoCA) is a living contemporary art collecting institution that promotes direct contact with original art works in order to explore, expose and expand the public’s knowledge about art, as well as its inspirational and developmental capacity for humanity. NNEMoCA creates ways art can be used as an effective tool for education, civic pride and economic development through community outreach and public engagement.
