Registrering av konstbilder
En översikt av forskning och praktik i en domänspecifik form av kunskapsorganisation
The purpose of this thesis is to present a review of research themes and practice in the field of art image registration. The objectives of the review are twofold. The primary task is to distinguish which problems, in regard to theory and practice, that have been dealt with in the field of art image registration and the secondary task is to investigate which discursive, institutional and tool-related factors have had an impact on theoretical discussions and practice in the art image domain. The empirical content in the review is structured according to four epistemological viewpoints and is analyzed with a domain analytical approach. The result of the study is that two major problems are frequently discussed in the art image domain, namely lack of standardization and which discourse is the best suited for registration of art images. Furthermore, staff education, institutional users, lack of coordination within the domain, incompatibility between discourses and lack of suitable registration tools are factors that have been affecting the discussions and practice within the domain.
