Culture Index exists to catalog cultural institutions online, and highlight the best practices that inspire us.
Launching with a focus on museums and building from there, we are a resource for both research and discovery. Browse information about online communications, and discover ideas with examples of what’s possible for cultural institutions in the digital space.
As a community project facilitated by Base, we invite you to use and contribute to this growing resource.
Bevilacqua La Masa
The Bevilacqua La Masa Foundation was initiated in 1898 shortly after the Biennale of Venice. It owes its name to its founder Felicita Bevilacqua. After the Foundation opened, it rapidly became a point of reference and launching pad for young artists such as Boccioni, Casorati, Semeghini, Gino Rossi and Arturo Martini, among the others.
