ART IN EVERY TAB
Portrait of Cornelia, Clara and Johanna Veth , by Jan Veth, via Europeana I am very excited to talk about this project because to me it embodies so many principles that make up the themes of this blog. A casual way to encounter art every day, over and over again, with no real active effort required for the user. Many people will find themselves overwhelmed at the prospect to actively search for art in online collections. With this wonderful invention one simply has to invest, say 3 minutes of their precious time, in order to install an add-on and can then afterwards enjoy images of art every day henceforth. Oh and something else that lowers the threshold for prospective users even more, it’s entirely for free. The project I want to present today is the “Art Up Your Tab” add-on by a Dutch team consisting of Kennisland, Studio Parker and Sara Kolster. An add-on for your web browser will add something very specific to it, like blocking advertisement off for instance. By usin
