explain how each may be useful for finding out about artists and designers
•The
Library
•The
Museum/ Art Gallery
•The
Internet
What different methods will we need to
use in each case?
The Library - The Library will have extensive amounts of research, and potentially classic and official research placed into books, rather than risking unofficial research or facts, that could be written by unofficial sources on the internet or in magazines for example, opinions can quite easily be mistaken for research, and can throw people off of their desired target.
providing one can provide the time and the effort to search through unknown amounts of books, normally one can find what they are looking for, the only issue with libraries is the factor that they can be very time consuming. libraries normally contain information about people or characters and history, so libraries would certainly be a good place if you can donate the time.
The Museum/Art Gallery - Museum's and art galleries can also be greatly resourceful for finding out information on artists and designers, rather than having written information, normally you'll find lots of work created by artists and designers, with core information on their work, i.e when it was made, or how it was created, or maybe even where the idea's came from.
Museum's and Art Galleries are prime places to find physical work and core information about artists and designers, but this method will only contain so much information, rather than having excessive amounts of information on the desired character.
The Internet - The internet is a massive database of information where you can gather any kinds of information, about any person you desire, it could technically be considered a museum/rt gallery and library all in one, but the only problem is when it comes down to finding information, some information gathered can be incorrect. as it is a place that any person can upload their own knowledge to the internet, which could potentially be wrong.
not all sources are officially wrong, nor are all of them officially right, which is the main problem with the internet, not to mention it's hazards when it comes down to viruses and so on.
All characters, artists and designers can be found on the internet, with wide ranges of information and images included, but users must be aware that they could be collecting information that isn't entirely correct.
