Six galleries in Australia April 4 joined the Google Art Project, which provides an online platform to view thousands of artworks in detail from anywhere in the world. The Art Gallery of New South Wales will have 415 of its key works available for viewing. More than 250 of these will be accessible via the 3D museum-view walkthrough.
Artists represented include John Constable, Gustave Courbet, Ford Madox Brown, Eugene Delacroix, and Australians Arthur Boyd, Sidney Nolan, Timmy Payungka Tjapangati and Barrupu Yunupingu.
"The Google Art Project has enabled us to be just one of six galleries in Australia to showcase our most iconic and popular works," said Art Gallery of New South Wales director Anne Flanagan. The aim of the Google Art Project is to transform how art is viewed and to make it universally accessible.
