Imbued is the first open metamuseum: a community where artists, museums and users collaborate and inspire one another. Use it how you want. Invent. Express. Communicate. We believe art lives in the eyes and bodies of those who make it, those who look at it, those who live with it. And where it lives, they stay young. That is Imbued: inspiration over engagement, the art to be, by making. A universal project, respecting cultures and crossing frontiers. THREE STEPS 1. Explore. Look around as a guest, without an account. 2. Create your profile before 15 April 2027, World Art Day, and you are a Forever Artist. 3. Make your own, and post it. EXPLORE THE ART WORLD Photography, painting, sculpture, digital art, video, music, collaborations. More than a million works from Europeana, the Met, the Smithsonian and many others, next to the work of museums, galleries, academies and artists. Everyone can exhibit. Navigate by artist, by museum or by emotion. Works are backlit and zoomable into the detail. Available in seven languages. YOUR BEHOLDER'S SHARE Stop on a work. Learn who made it, where, when, the story behind it. Then say what it does to you, draw over it, answer it with work of your own. That is your beholder's share: a concept developed by the art historians Ernst Kris and Ernst Gombrich, whose neural basis the neuroscientist and Nobel laureate Eric Kandel later explored. A work is finished by the person looking at it. MAKE YOUR OWN Make your own work, in Imbued's editor or with your usual tools, digital or analog, and post it. Art, and what it does to you. No followers to chase, no algorithm to feed. THE FOREVER ARTIST SOCIETY Create your profile before 15 April 2027 and you are a Forever Artist, among the first museums, galleries, academies and artists. Forever Artists get the real editor, the same tool a professional artist uses: drawing, painting, photo and video editing, illustration. Free, for good, with new features every month. And it is theirs to shape: Forever Artists propose what comes next, and watch it arrive. As Imbued grows they are the first to know, with dedicated events and exclusive offers. The doors close on 15 April 2027. YOUR WORK, SIGNED AND DATED Imbued gives the value of intellectual property back to those who own it. Sign a work with Art Blockchain and it is a One and Only: dated, signed, yours, with its provenance wherever the work goes. No financial speculation, no wallet, no complications. ART IS ALSO SCIENCE The power of art to keep you young is now science, too. UCL's Daisy Fancourt found that people who engage with the arts every week tend to age more slowly at the cellular level. Every week: art works the way a gym does. One visit a year changes nothing, the habit does the work. Only here what you exercise is the mind and the body together, and nobody has to make themselves go. That is why Imbued is home to a Sapienza University of Rome spin-off, built to study art as a way into science. And vice versa: art, universities, clinical and cultural institutions, labs and technology together, leading art into the digital age. AI FOR THE COMMON GOOD We believe artificial intelligence can be a tool for the present and for the future, but it has to be built for the common good, with universities and institutions directly involved. Through its university spin-off and the foundations and organizations it partners with, Imbued strives for an intelligence in the service of people: less and less artificial, more and more human-centered. Answer the call to arts. We believe art belongs to everyone, and that everyone who looks at a work becomes part of it. Forever art. Forever young. Imbued. I art therefore I'm. #ArtWillSaveTheWorld ## Is IMBUED safe? Not enough ratings yet to assess IMBUED. ## Is IMBUED legit? IMBUED: Open Art Metamuseum appears legitimate, with a few gaps.
