Arts - View the classic artworks of the world's 50 greatest artists for free and offline. I moved to a city without art galleries and began to realize how boring life is without offline art spaces. Wait! How about creating an online art exhibition app? Because I guess "no art spaces in the city" might be a common situation in the world. Finally, I found that this concept briefly emerged during COVID, but then gradually fell out of maintenance, and many online art galleries ceased to operate with many content involving copyright issues. Therefore, I returned to the original idea: bringing the works of the world's 50 most famous deceased artists, including Van Gogh, Monet, Gauguin, Picasso, etc., over 8000 high-definition artworks, to the phone. When you download it, you have an offline art gallery accessible anywhere, just treat it as a virtual art exhibition. In addition, I used AI technology to preserve the background story information of these 8000 artworks. You can click on any piece in the gallery to view the highlights and the background of its creation, allowing you to appreciate these works more deeply. As the splash screen of this app says, "Dedicated to those who cannot enter an art museum."
