It is almost certain that the coronavirus issue has increased interest in online recently (because the offline is in a Pandemic state). Art, in particular, has become regarded as an area for certain classes, but it is also necessary to think about the popularization of art since its online existence.
For all that may be lost, online galleries have long been “making works of art widely available, introducing new forms of perception in film and photography and allowing art to move from private to public, from the elite to the masses.”
The online world offers possibilities for “the emergence of new cultural phenomena, the virtual aura.” Over the years we have featured dozens of databases, archives, and online galleries through which you might virtually experience art the world over, an experience once solely reserved for only the very wealthy. And as artists and curators adapt to a digital environment, they find new ways to make virtual galleries enchanting. And below the list of galleries, find links to online collections of several hundred art books to read online or download.
