Cost Elements in Digital Exhibition Production

Abstract

With the acceleration of digitalization, visual art pieces are no longer confined to physical spaces and have begun to be showcased on online platforms. The article presents an analysis of the cost elements involved in creating a digital exhibition, using the "Sezen Aksu Digital Art Exhibition" as a case study. The study examines the historical impact of technology on digital exhibitions and identifies various cost factors, including professional fees, technology and hardware costs, production and design expenses, marketing and promotion, museum rent, personnel costs, and additional expenses. The findings indicate that technology and hardware costs constitute a significant portion of the overall budget, offering valuable insights for future digital exhibition projects' planning and budgeting.
