Art History as „Network of Relations“
Relations in tradition, influence, style and technique
Relations between people ( teacher/student, patrons, collaborators, etc.)
Geographical influences( „Dutch Light“ ... )
General historical influences( wars, different reigns etc. )
Last but not least: associative approaches

„Art Diagrams“ as Virtual Museum Layouts ?
4
Use existing semantic relationships
Organize them to form “Narratives” and
use them as base for automatic graph layouts
1st example: Relationships between artists, their patrons etc.
