Eddie Wolfram Digital Archive
Digital archive celebrating artist and educator Eddie Wolfram (1940–2001) - curated galleries, biography, and legacy content.
Project Overview
Eddie Wolfram was an artist and educator whose work spanned painting, teaching, and creative practice across the second half of the twentieth century. The estate needed a permanent online home for his work - one that would outlast temporary exhibitions and make his catalogue accessible worldwide.
Digedtal designed and built a digital archive with curated artwork galleries, biographical content, and structured metadata. The site prioritises image quality and readability, with clear navigation between collections and contextual information about Wolfram's life and practice.
This project established the template for heritage archive builds at Digedtal - a pattern later applied to the Deborah Jones Digital Archive.
