Try Before You Buy: Uprise Art App Makes It Possible To Visualize and Interact With Fine Art
New York-based art gallery Uprise Art and a team of West Coast developers have created an augmented reality iPad app Uprise Art x Picksureit. The free app is available in the iTunes store, and allows users to visualize how real artwork will look and fit in any space.
Uprise Art has already advanced the way the art world works, launching in 2011 with an innovative “invest-over-time” payment plan that makes art more accessible than ever. Now, they are going even further to make the art world accessible by expanding their gallery from the web to mobile technology.
The first of its kind, the free Uprise Art app allows users to virtually interact with hundreds of artworks from the comfort of their home. Users can quickly and easily select any piece from Uprise Art’s curated collection, view the piece to-scale from different angles and distances, and, with just one click, contact the gallery to have their selection delivered. As e-commerce continues to move toward mobile (in 2012, 4 out of 5 consumers used smartphones to shop1), Uprise Art’s iPad app ensures that the art world keeps pace.
