Google Cultural Institute to add Romanian art collections to its digital archives

Google will launch the first art collections in Romania on its Google Cultural Institute platform next week. This is a digital platform which allows access to historic and cultural patrimony throughout the world via the Internet. With 500 partner institutions in 60 countries in the world, Google Cultural Institute this makes its step in Romania as well. The Internet giant will next week organize a conference at the Romanian Peasant Museum to announce the program for Romania. With Google Cultural Institute, users can create their own galleries featuring their favorite art and share them with their friends. The only collection from Romania currently featured in Google Cultural Institute is that of the Romanian Television TVR – Fall of the Iron Curtain, Historic Moments, which can be seen here. There are currently 629 collections in Google Cultural Institute, featuring works of art exhibited in famous museums around the world. editor@romania-insider.com
