People Are Recreating Famous Paintings In Their Homes (35 Pics)

Published 5 years ago

Just because the museums are currently closed due to the quarantine, this doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy art. And some museums are actually encouraging people to create art themselves! Just a few days ago, Getty (J. Paul Getty Museum) challenged people to recreate a work of art using the objects they have in their homes – and the results did not disappoint.

The challenge quickly went viral and people began submitting all sorts of improvised masterpieces. The Pinchuk Art Centre in Kyiv, Ukraine, and the Dutch Tussen Kunst en Quarantaine Instagram also encouraged people to try their hand at recreating art. See how the most creative recreations in the gallery below!

Aušrys Uptas

One day, this guy just kind of figured - "I spend most of my time on the internet anyway, why not turn it into a profession?" - and he did! Now he not only gets to browse the latest cat videos and fresh memes every day but also shares them with people all over the world, making sure they stay up to date with everything that's trending on the web. Some things that always pique his interest are old technologies, literature and all sorts of odd vintage goodness. So if you find something that's too bizarre not to share, make sure to hit him up!

Got wisdom to pour?
