The Frick Collection is an internationally recognized museum and research center, located in New York City. It is known for its distinguished Old Master paintings, and outstanding examples of European sculpture and decorative arts.
In many cases, the digital images that The Frick has are the only images in existence of certain works. The Frick needed an efficient, cost-effective way to track and preserve these rare images, and easily provide access to them for art historians, subject matter experts, and the public.
The Frick needed a single solution that would enable staff to easily upload assets, automate metadata, and rapidly find and create new versions of rare art images.
Xinet WebNative Suite is the only asset management system that combines a dynamic production workflow toolset with a powerful digital asset management framework. “Xinet has enabled us to automate manual tasks, like meta tagging and creation of alternate file types,” states Johnson. “It’s really saving us significantly in staff time and budget.”
• Fast ROI – IOI provided comprehensive training for The Frick Collection staff, which enabled the museum to transition smoothly to the new system and benefit from the investment rapidly
• Saving money and time – The workflow and ability to manage assets has allowed us to automate manual tasks
