If you're a worldly individual who relishes in getting in touch with your inner cultural fanatic, the Gagosian Gallery iPad App is the perfect virtual tool for you! This new iPad app allows users to access the past and present exhibitions from the world-renown Gagosian Gallery.
The Gagosian Gallery iPad App will serve as an online magazine that will be released four times a year. According to the museum's website, each issue will contain "content that features recent, current, and future Gagosian artists, exhibitions, and projects." The app is free to download and will certainly appeal to all art enthusiasts who, without its service, would never have the opportunity to attend exhibitions. The first edition will feature work from a variety of artists including Richard Avedon, Cecily Brown, John Currin, Vera Lutter, Kazimir Malevich, Elizabeth Peyton, Pablo Picasso, Robert Rauschenberg, Richard Prince, and Rudolf Stingel. The Gagosian Gallery iPad App may in fact serve as more enjoyable for its users as it provides ample amounts of information, facts and hitories of all the exhibitions.
