Dear TMS Users,

 

I am in the process of entering into TMS data on objects included in an exhibition at el museo on performance art in the Americas.  I am having an issue as to which field to enter the name of the exhibition or festival that the documented performance/action was performed in.  For example one of the objects is a video of a performance by Colombian performance artist Maria Teresa Hincapie.  The video documents a performance held during the “33rd National Artists’ Salon” in Bogota, Colombia.  I created an Object Geography Type called “Performance/Action Place” and entered “Bogota” and “Colombia” in the Object Geography City and Object Geography Country fields respectively.  However, I don’t know in which field to enter “33rd National Artists’ Salon”  - the Historical Attributions field? (located within the Documentation tab of the Objects module data entry screen).  Should I create an Events module record for the performance event and link Event record to Object record?

 

Your feedback will be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you,

 

Noel Valentin
