The German CCTV manufacturer Geutebruck reports that its products are in use at cultural institutions, from the Amber Room in Russia to the Louvre in Paris to Berlin’s Museum Island.
Geutebruck now also protects the Kunstmuseum Singen, pictured. With around 1,000 m² of visitor and exhibition space, it is one of the largest municipal art museums on the German side of Lake Constance. Its rotating exhibitions attract visitors from the four-country Alpine region. In 2014 it was renovated and expanded. Besides a new foyer with a cafeteria and museum shop, it has spacious and expansive exhibition rooms.
The security was also modernised during the renovation project. The new Geutebruck video system was put into operation at the reopening, to protect the art exhibition. It extends over two floors and includes what the CCTV firm terms a flexible, dynamic design: The exhibits change up to five times per year, and the exhibition space is changed using movable partitions. For this reason, all cameras are attached to cable trays using magnets. The cameras can follow the course of the exhibit, flexibly adapted to the new lines of sight. Images are made available to the museum guards centrally.
