Exhibition

Version: 1.0

The Exhibition reference data model provides a list of standard fields that are typically present in the general description of an Exhibition, taken in the sense of planned public or social occasion, organized towards some purpose. The aim of this reference model is to cover basic descriptors that are typically employed in the documentation of an Exhibition. This reference model aims to remain at a general level description, providing a consolidated, high-level reference data model of most commonly reused descriptors for an Exhibition as such and to provide for these, in turn, a set of standard semantic mappings to the CIDOC CRM.

Exhibition Names and Classifications

The attribution of names and types to events such as Exhibitions, as with other entities, is a basic human activity. A chief factor in disambiguating Exhibitions lies in understanding the various names and identifiers that have been given to them at different moments in their individual histories. Historical events often receive different names according to the groups naming it. Likewise, additional classifiers of the event, such as how it has been formally categorized, give important distinguishing characteristics.

Exhibition Existence

The existence of an Exhibition must be determined by documentary or physical evidence of the past. The documentation of the existence of an Exhibition, however, essentially relates to ascribing that Exhibition dates, where possible, durations otherwise, and a description of the temporality where none of the above is possible. The descriptors and mappings for these potentialities are documented in the table below.

Filed ID	Name	Description	Data Type	CRM Path
LAF.19	Exhibition Place	This field is used to link the documented Exhibition to an instance of place at which it occurred.	Reference Model [Place]	->p7->E53[19_1]
LAF.21	Department	This field is used to link the documented Exhibition to an instance of actor who was causally involved in the execution of the Exhibition.	Reference Model [Person/Group]	->p14->E39[21_1]
LAF.177	Exhibition Date	This field is used to link the documented temporal entity to an instance of time-span recording the temporal extent of the Exhibition.	Collection [Timespan]	->P4->E52[177_1]
LAF.11	Exhibition creation type	This field is used to record the formal type of the documented Exhibition.	Concept	->p2->E55[11_1]

Exhibition Description

Exhibitions are the subjects of innumerable descriptions that provide a wide range of information with regards to what took place during the event and how, as well as providing interpretations of its significance and import. Such descriptions are of use in a scholarly understanding of an Exhibition just in case we are able to track the provenance of such elocutions in a systematic fashion. Such an aim drives the need for the tracking of description information as a separate category. The descriptors necessary for this task are documented in the table below.

Filed ID	Name	Description	Data Type	CRM Path
LAF.14	Statement Type	This field is used to record the formal type of the statement made about the documented Exhibition.	Concept	->p67i->E33[13_1]->p2->E55[14_1]
LAF.15	Statement	This field is used to record the actual textual content of the statement describing the documented Exhibition.	String	->p67i->E33[13_1]->p190->rdf:literal
LAF.16	Statement Language	This field is used to record the language of the statement describing the documented Exhibition.	Concept	->p67i->E33[13_1]->p72->E56[16_1]
