In Transit Blog: Where's That Picasso? An App Can Help

Written By Unknown on Jumat, 28 Desember 2012 | 17.35

For every interest, there is an app to help you find out where to enjoy it. Like cigars? Cigar Boss will tell you where to buy habaneros. Do you ski? There are too many guides to resorts to count. But art is a little harder to locate with your smartphone. It is this gap that the makers of the popular app Art Authority seek to fill. They have added a more location-focused app called Art Alert to steer you to famous works.

"We wanted to bring museums of the world to people, but we also wanted to bring people to museums of the world," said Alan Oppenheimer, president of Open Door Networks, which created the apps.

The app shows you a map with an icon indicating your location and pins indicating nearby institutions. Clicking on one will provide the museum's phone number, Web page and an option that lets you browse works. If you have the Art Authority app, too, once you land at, say, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and are taking in an El Greco, you can read a biography of the artist and find information about similar works.
