We live too fast with our attention on too many stimuli, and much of the blame goes to the computer in our pocket. Our mobile phone is a gateway to a multitude of services and content, therefore why not also make it a gateway to art. Especially when we have nothing to do but contemplate, and an app does it all for us.
This is the concept of DailyArt, an application for mobile phones that try to show us, at least once a day, a work of art on our smartphone. Instead of receiving other notifications, DailyArt tries to inspire and, incidentally, that one learns a little, because what is shown comes with its informative text. Artistic culture at the touch of a screen unlock.
One work of art per day
Just as doctors and dieticians recommend consuming five fruits a day, DailyArt offers us something similar but with intellectual consumption, with the consumption of works of art. The application has an extremely simple operation but no less laudable: every day we will have art waiting to be appreciated or consumed through a notification on the mobile that we can configure at the desired time.
As the developers themselves say, DailyArt contains an archive with over 2,500 works of art by over 780 artists, and every day we have one of the first and the biography of its creator. All of this explained in a simple, simple and pleasant way, so that we can consume a little culture, even if it is only once a day. Ideal for those who want to deepen their knowledge in this field as well as for those who want to get started.
Although the app will automatically offer a daily work of art, if we wish we can search your database locate more and more works contained in the application. Everything we view can be shared and we will also have a widget in case we prefer to put DailyArt on the desktop and make it more accessible.
