- June 02, 2011 19:37
Mega-sized art dealership Gagosian Gallery is launching a free and interactive iPad app this month. Users can read artist biographies, reviews, news and events, browse exhibitions and even watch footage of important art historical moments such as Robert Rauschenberg's 1966 performance of Open Score.
The app, designed by Academy Award-winning @radical.media, includes maps to the gallery's eleven international locations and a link to its online store.
Users can engage with Gagosian's New York gallery to see the Picasso exhibition---with 20 paintings of the artist's lover Marie-Therese---which can be explored on a touch-sensitive sketch.
