Rediscovered/redownloaded Art Authority for iPad today. Nice way to view artworks from artists throughout history. Plus, you can even save your favorites! Highly recommended!

I think several people overestimated the nature of this app. Would it be cool to have an app that hosts entire collection of existing art? Of course! Would that collection be enormous? Yup. In fact it would probably have to be either subscription based app, or cost like $50 or so. I’m not a fan of subscription structure but something like that would have to be a service. In other words someone would have to constantly update that database and you would be able to get access to their server. Think of all the copyright issues. If you take a photo of a public artwork from 1000 years ago, that photo is still your property and can’t be used by third parties for profit. That means whoever will manage this database has to either obtain permission for using those photos or go out and actually photograph all those artworks themselves. Is that remotely realistic to charge single $5 fee for that sort of thing? This app is for entertainment purpose. It’s cheap, some photos are not the best possible quality, but it’s a lot of fun to use! Just use it on the bus or passing time browsing through some classic works of art. Some artist strikes your interest, just google it and find more exhaustive info and more art. It’s not the app to use for deep research, but personally I use it to get inspiration for my own art. It’s like a huge brain-storm resource. Gives a good reference into what’s out there. It won’t replace Google or a visit to an actual museum. But it’s a lot of fun, for what it’s worth.

I’m not sure why there are negative reviews...this app worked flawlessly for me. Maybe it depends on what you use the app for - I’m just educating myself with it. I love browsing and better understanding what styles and artists I prefer. Access to more information is super easy, navigation is simple and intuitive for me.

The app does not work, the works don’t download. Tried deleting, reinstalling, and nothing. Waste of time!

An outstanding reference. Very well organized and easy to use. A great way to discover artists throughout history and from many genres.

Over 10 Russian artists can be found in the collection but they are not located in any category or timeline that I can find. Suggestion... add a Russian artist category that contains them... Other than that, 2 thumbs ups for the app! Having a hand- held set of art museums to study art is super! Excellent work!

This app isn’t worth the $10 they want for it. It’s OK, but not great. It’s not organized very well and the image quality should be better. And, for all the pieces in here, most are from white men which makes it feel a little monolithic. For this amount of money, it should be better.

Art Authority is a combination of unique concept and resourceful reference source that allows users to feel that they are touring a real life museum with hundreds of works from various periods and artists only the users access to knowledge extends beyond that of an institution. Users are even given the option to purchase reproductions of works they like making Art Authority an application for education and commerce.
