Find the perfect artwork to decorate your world.

Take a look at LookAtArt.info to help you decide which medium of art suites you.

The world of art is truly an amazing place to visit. Whether you enjoy the style and design of fine art or the way-out imagination of fantasy art, each piece gives the viewer a chance to see the world from a new perspective. A picture, painting or sculpture can capture a powerful emotion or whisk you away to another world.

Today, it is possible to travel back in time and view artwork on the Internet. You can visit some museums online, like the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston or Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco, and view their latest collections. Many of the online museums offer a sneak preview of their current or upcoming collections and some have searchable calendars to help you plan a real visit.

With your computer, explore the history of art, from artist's styles to periods like Ancient Greece and Rome to the 19th Century and the introduction of modern art. If abstract art is your thing, you will find many sites and museums to browse, including information about the abstract art movement and Cubism, Neoplasticism and Abstract Expressionism.

A desire to capture the beauty in the world around us has existed since prehistoric times. With these online tools it is now possible to add an element of sophistication to your home or office with some select pieces of fine art or modern art, or design a room around the colors and shapes found in abstract art.
