The article presents a study analyzing the attitudes of managers regarding the digitalization of art organizations. The results of an empirical survey are provided, showing the desire for digitalization within these organizations. The research focuses on the digitalization of art management processes and presents a prototype for digital art management. The relevance of the prototype is expressed in the fact that this area remains under-researched and requires further attention and development, especially in the context of rapidly evolving technologies and the growing needs of the contemporary art sector.References
