About CAPTA

CAPTA is a living visual archive of exhibitions and cultural spaces.

CAPTA was created to preserve what usually disappears first: the spatial reality of exhibitions.

Exhibitions are temporary.
Works circulate.
Spaces evolve.

But the relationships between artworks, architecture, light, and circulation are rarely archived in a faithful and durable way.

CAPTA exists to preserve this spatial context.

⸻

A spatial archive

CAPTA does not focus on isolated artworks.

It documents situations.

Each capture preserves:

• the position of works in space
• their relationships to architecture
• the visitor’s possible paths
• the overall atmosphere of the exhibition

The result is a navigable visual archive that allows future viewing and study of exhibitions as spatial experiences.

⸻

A living archive

CAPTA archives are hosted online and designed to remain accessible over time.

They can be enriched with:

• curatorial texts
• images
• videos
• external links

These additions function as annotations, never as overlays or transformations.

The space remains central.

⸻

Public visibility (optional)

When rights allow, CAPTA offers optional public publication on platforms such as Google Street View.

This publication is never automatic.

Institutions remain in control of what is published, where, and how.

⸻

Respect and responsibility

CAPTA works with respect for:

• artists’ rights
• institutional policies
• copyright frameworks

CAPTA does not claim ownership of artworks.

CAPTA provides a service of capture, hosting, and archiving.
