This App Is Being Called “The Shazam Of Art”

You can now take your bourgeois art knowledge to the next level and uncover the story behind your favorite works of art with the app Smartify.

Maybe when photographer Ansel Adams said, “you don’t take a photograph, you make it,” he was foreseeing the app that allows you to scan and identify artworks….well, probably not, but it is rather fitting.

Just like the Shazam for art, Smartify is the new app that not only provides you with what piece of artwork you are staring at, but also gives you the history behind it. So, you can gain some street art cred with your pals after you unlock the stories behind the art.

Of course, as you venture from museum to museum, gallery to gallery, all of your photographed artwork is saved in your own personal gallery. The venue you are visiting also has the ability to sign up to receive data on who is looking at what.
