The Gallery of Lost Art has been showcasing artworks which have been lost, stolen, discarded, rejected and destroyed for nearly12 months. This Thursday, as planned when the project launched, the online gallery will be erased.
So far over 100,000 people in over 150 countries have visited the site. It has logged over 900 blogs and press features worldwide including reports on a-n News, the Guardian, and Huffington Post. In May this year the project received the the Museums + Heritage Award for Innovation.
ISO who designed and produced the site will be launching a legacy site to document the project with links to specially commissioned films and essays later this Summer – plus there will be a Lost Art book.
In the meantime the countdown is on so be sure to visit whilst you still have a chance.
