This tablet application takes an in-depth look at some of the greatest works in the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum: 143 masterpieces by 131 artists, created over seven centuries of history.

‘Selected Works‘ takes you on an incredible journey through the history of art. It starts with the Italian Primitives of the Late Middle Ages and continues through the Renaissance and Baroque periods, to end in the 20th century with key movements like Impressionism, Cubism, Surrealism and Pop Art. Along the way you will encounter essential artists including Rembrandt, Rubens, Holbein, Caravaggio, Degas, Monet, Picasso, Kandinsky, Rothko, Hopper and many more. Learn more about these painters and their works from the biographies and commentaries written by the Museum’s conservation team and accompanying high-quality images. The eight gigapixel photographs let you zoom in and view works in stunning detail, on an almost microscopic level.

The application is the result of a collaboration between the BBVA Foundation and the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum. The “Program of Applications, Digital Publications and Educational Knowledge“ is a vehicle for the development of multimedia publications that offer the public new experiences, virtual and live, in connection with works and artists from the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum collections, along with a range of educational features and information and communication channels between the museum and its visitors.

This App has been available at the different market places until December 2019.
