Innovation Catalysts:

In support of the digital humanities, the Frick Art Research Library collaborates in creating research platforms, publishing datasets, digitizing library materials, supporting fellowships, offering lectures, workshops, and symposia, and has dedicated a position to encourage and catalyze digital art history projects and practices. These undertakings employ diverse methodologies, ranging from computer vision and artificial intelligence to text analysis, digital publications, and data visualizations. This article surveys several examples of how the Frick Art Research Library supports the digital humanities, and more specifically, digital art history—a subset of the field.
