Dear All,
May be I can make the difference more clear:
The fundamental principle of formal ontologies is to be able to say if
something is the same thing in two different references.
Therefore,
(1) the identity of the exhibition set is given by what was exhibited.
The phase of collecting is its production, because the relation of the
parts to the whole are not yet well defined.
(2) the identity of the collection is given by a concept of continuity
of growth, which has to do with its unity at any point in time and the
intentions of the curator.
May be a term "Temporary Aggregate" would be useful (P2 has type:...).
This can pertain to many situations and processes.
A new class, in whatever extension, could specify the exhibition activity.
All the best,
Martin

Dear Thomas,
Just to clarify: Any fixed set of objects kept together for a
particular purpose in this combination qualifies as a kind of Physical
Object, and is not regarded "Collection" only because it is a set of
things. A collection in the sense of E78 is given when things are
potentially added at any, unlimited time following some permanent plan
of the kinds of things to be collected and are being kept at a
permanent place. I'd rather avoid talking about "collection", because
the exhibition fixes the set, and then it is over.
Also, the exhibition set of objects forms a didactic unit, matches
with a catalogue. The objects will remain members of their collections
of origin.
CRM *thinking* is in events, more than things. Creating an "Exhibition
Making" activity is rather adequate, much more than seeking exhibition
semantics indirectly in the product, and then putting in its
description until all that has happened is concentrated in it. We have
part addition and part removal events, and plans of things to be
exhibited. The history of planning can be some times much more
intriguing than the actual set that could be brought together. But I
do not want to interfere with the discussion George mentions.
All the best,
Martin

You might want to hop over to the Linked.Art forum and check out what
is going on. It is the major focus of modelling right now (using
CRM). It is not finalized but you can at least follow the live
discussions and make your own decisions.
Best,
George

Hello
Has anyone already described Exhibitions using the CIDOC-CRM ? I
have a use-case where we thought it could make sense to
publish/disseminate data about exhibitions, mostly to state the
list of objects in the museum that "participated in" the exhibition.
Can the group of items that participated in an exhibition be
considered as a E78_Collection, curated by some curator ?
Which would be the main entities of the model that participate in
this use-case to state that an item participated in an exhibition ?
Cheers
Thomas
