The initial situation.
In Wojda‘s book on collecting contemporary art „Das Sammeln zeitgenössischer Kunst; ein ganzheitlicher Ansatz“ (Verlag für moderne Kunst, 2015), one chapter deals with the digital management of art collections.
Wojda focused his research on digital management software for his considerable collection. He investigated the software available on the market at the time, searching for a program which would best fulfill his requirements.
He learned, the majority of software offered, had features exceeding his needs and included modules he would neither use nor need.
Goals and solution.
Wojda specified requirements relevant for him but also for a broader variety of private collectors. Those requirements should fulfill the needs of private collectors and be widely applicable.
The Software ArtAssistant should be practical for wide
implementation and - if wanted - easily customized to each collectors individual needs.
