Whether you live thousands of miles away from some of the world\u2019s best art museums, or the weather has prevented you from traveling outdoors, Google\u2019s Arts and Culture app is the answer to your museum woes. Further, the app features more than artwork and artifacts from a select few museums: it boasts collections from 850+ museums, organizations, and archives worldwide. This app is the global arts and culture app you\u2019ve been waiting for.<\/p>\n

Find What You\u2019re Looking For<\/strong>
\nSearch for works according to time period or color, and read about their histories as you view them. Or search for works according to a phrase, such as \u201canimals in modern art\u201d or \u201cMexican art,\u201d or according to a specific movement, historical event, or place.<\/p>\n

Learn About New Exhibits<\/strong>
\nThe app also includes a \u201cdaily digest,\u201d which discusses certain artwork, artists, artifacts, cultures, and more. This section includes \u201cfeatured projects,\u201d and \u201cstories of the day,\u201d which might be on topics such as natural history or specific exhibitions. These sections might include photos, videos, and virtual tours, in addition to information on the topic.<\/p>\n

Create Your Own Collections<\/strong>
\nYou can save your favorite works to view later, and organize them into collections. This is a plus if you want fast access to the works that inspire you, or if you need to review works for a class, or even if you want to categorize your favorites according to a color or topic.<\/p>\n

Experience Incredible Detail<\/strong>
\nNow you can get very close to a piece of artwork without setting off the alarms: Simply zoom in and admire the detail. Notice the movement of the brush stroke, or the thickness of paint \u2014 it\u2019s all there.<\/p>\n

Take a Virtual Tour<\/strong>
\nYou can take 360-degree panoramic tours of the museums. Virtual tours are also available for landmarks and other historical sites. This is another plus if you\u2019re into the architecture of the museum, or just want to see what a particular place looks like.<\/p>\n

The App Works with Museums<\/strong>
\nWhile this app still doesn\u2019t compare to physically visiting a museum, it allows you to visit a multitude of museums without spending money on transportation, hotels, or even access to the museum. But the app understands that you\u2019ll occasionally want to visit the actual museum, which is why it also provides information on museum hours and events. Google is even testing out an \u201cart recognizer\u201d feature in select museums, which allows you to look up the physical painting through the app to get more information on it. This app truly has it all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
