About Us
Open Door-Contemporary Art Projects (OD-CAP) offers a novel approach to accessing art and culture information. Using a combination of different media, OD-CAP exists in a new virtual territory and takes the “best practices” in the complex world of art museums and exhibitions to “extend the white cube” making it possible for artists, scholars, and curators to interact with off and online communities.
OD-CAP is a specific content-oriented social-networking interactive collaborative site to change long held assumptions about audiences and their engagement with art. The OD-CAP website explores and develops the intersection between technology and community-building. At OD-CAP, visitors at all levels can discover new colleagues and collaborators through shared interests. Visitors can also adapt new media habits through the OD-CAP site exploring technology to make a difference in their personal visual literacy and the visual literacy of their communities.
