Visiting Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion?

You must join the virtual exhibition queue when you arrive. If capacity has been reached for the day, the queue will close early.

The Met 360° Project

This award-winning series of six short videos invites viewers around the world to virtually visit The Met's art and architecture in a fresh, immersive way. Created using spherical 360° technology, it allows viewers to explore some of the Museum's iconic spaces as never before.

Viewed more than 11 million times, this series affords an access and a perspective typically unavailable to the public. Viewers can experience the magic of standing in an empty gallery after-hours, witnessing a bustling space in time-lapse, or floating high above The Met Cloisters for a bird's-eye view. We strung cables, removed protective covers from works of art, and rigged cameras up high, all to allow viewers to explore The Met as never before.

Get a behind-the-scenes look at how we created the videos in a Digital Underground article written by Director/Producer Nina Diamond.

You may view these videos on YouTube on multiple devices:

• On your smartphone: Move your phone up, down, and behind you to see all directions.
• On your desktop computer: Use the mouse to scroll in all directions. (Note: For an optimal user experience, use Chrome or Firefox as your browser.)
• On Google Cardboard or a VR headset

Be sure to turn up the volume to hear the music, too.

Architect Richard Morris Hunt designed this majestic space in 1902. He never could have imagined that today the Museum's main entry greets more than six million visitors a year. Now you can experience its Neoclassical grandeur in a way no one ever has before.

Come explore not just behind the scenes, but everywhere in 360°. This video lets you soar past the colonnades, up toward the oculus in the ceiling, and cast a look down over the Grand Staircase and balcony. Aren't you curious who creates those colossal flower arrangements when you're still asleep?

The Met Cloisters

Take to the sky to explore the majestic vistas of The Met Cloisters. This branch of the Museum in northern Manhattan’s Fort Tryon Park is dedicated to the art, architecture, and gardens of medieval Europe.

Explore 360° views over the city, across the Hudson River, and high above two richly landscaped gardens. Inside, spin around to admire the medieval cloisters that form the core of the historic building, and listen to the resonant chimes from the bell tower, more than 100 feet above ground.

The Temple of Dendur

Immerse yourself in this 360° video capturing dawn to dusk in the Temple of Dendur. Built around 15 B.C. when the Roman Emperor Augustus ruled Egypt, the temple was a 1968 gift from Egypt to the United States in recognition of support given to save its monuments threatened by the Nile.

The temple's setting in The Sackler Wing was designed to approximate the light and surroundings of its original location in Nubia, including a reflecting pool that evokes the Nile.

The Met Breuer

On March 18, 2016, The Metropolitan Museum of Art opened The Met Breuer, its new space was dedicated to modern and contemporary art.

Whether you're a recent or longtime fan of the building's classic modernist design, or have just been struck by its bold form at Madison Avenue and 75th Street–here's your chance to enjoy a 360° perspective on architect Marcel Breuer's landmark 1966 creation. Scan up the jagged facade to the trapezoidal window with clouds above, or hover inside the entrance lobby over the sunken garden courtyard.

After four years, the Museum has now permanently closed its Breuer location. The Frick Collection will take over the building during the upgrade and renovation of its museum space at 1 East 70th Street.

The Charles Engelhard Court

Come explore the crown jewel of The Met's American Wing in spherical 360° video. Float in mid-air among the sculptures, including cheek-to-cheek with the gilded sculpture of Diana on its tall pedestal. Try tipping your view over the upper balcony's edge to witness the crowd below in time-lapse—all using your mouse, track pad, or smartphone. You can even peek at the easels of two artists at work.

Flanked by stunning Tiffany stained-glass windows, The Charles Engelhard Court in The American Wing houses some of the Museum's most iconic sculptures, mosaics, and architectural elements.

Arms and Armor Galleries

Visit The Met's distinguished collection of arms and armor from Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and America. Experience the galleries from above and take a closer look at some of the key objects of sculptural and ornamental beauty—all in 360. This may be the only time you’ll ever get to stand in the middle of a parade of armored soldiers on horseback. No matter where you turn—from the flags overhead to the weapons gleaming below—you'll find unprecedented access to these masterpieces of original design and traditional craftsmanship.

10 Incredible Virtual Street Art Tours to Beat the Quarantine Blues

Quarantine is a bitch. But with a little technology and some research, we can say goodbye to the quarantine blues. So, let’s indulge in street culture from around the globe. Here are 10 incredible cities with 10 astonishing street art murals from around the world you can do from your couch.

Let’s thank our friend Google who went to all of these locations and created a Google street view of these 10 incredible cities.

The great thing about this is, even though you’re moving around cyberspace on your own, Google won’t let you stray off the path. So, you won’t miss any piece of art or get lost.

Which Cities are Included?

Buenos Aires, Argentina

This mural by Sixe and Chu, Canard and Castillo, resides in the neighborhood of Chacarita. The painting itself was done by artists that belong to the art collective of graffitimundo.

Graffitimundo is a nonprofit that promotes and educates the residents of Buenos Aires on the culture of street art.

They currently work with museums, charities, universities, the media, and thousands of individuals who want to learn about the street art culture in Argentina.

This online tour covers a couple of streets. But you can do it right from the comfort of your bed.

Take that, quarantine. 

Melbourne, Australia 

Blender Lane is a famous alleyway in Melbourne where you can find street art, stencils, and spray paint on every inch of wall space.

It’s maintained by a local street collective  invert  and  deansunshine . Together they provide documentation of the fantastic street art in Melbourne and create genre-defying art. They also specialize in art spaces and events featuring local artists.

Perth, Australia

In Perth Australia, in the parking lot off Murray street, there’s an incredible graffiti mural by FORM.

FORM is an artistic non-profit that nurtures creativity within the city. They believe that a city with street art will make a positive change within the community.

Lisbon, Portugal 

Lisbon, Portugal is home to many incredible street artists. Some have made a name for themselves around the world. But, on the wall of the Psychiatric Hospital, there is a half-mile stretch with twisted and incredible street art.

This mural is created by the Galeria de Arte Urbana or Urban Art Gallery.

Baltimore, Maryland

Station North Arts and Entertainment Inc. created a street art event in 2012 called Open Walls Baltimore. They chose incredible artists from around the world to create murals in specific parts of the city. Although these pieces of street art ranged from installations to performances, Google Street View is allowing you to view the art virtually.

London, England

London is creating a legal street movement with the Global Street Art collective. They have a significant collection you can view online. However, in this case, you can see this mural on Redchurch Street in London.

So, if you’ve ever wanted to check out the streets of London, there’s no better time than now. The only better thing than virtual reality is actual reality. So, check this out online and set a goal to see it in person.

Giardini Naxos, Italy

In a small walkway, through a few buildings, is a street called Mala Erba. This quaint area is home to beautiful street art by an art group that calls themselves Emergence.

Although this mural isn’t as big as some of the other ones on this virtual reality art tour, it’s nice to see some Italian streets during our quarantine.

There’s a building in the streets of Peru with a mural that’s 137 feet tall by 170 wide. It’s enormous. However, this is the only piece in this street art tour. Nevertheless, you can still beat those quarantine blues and head out into the world without leaving your couch.

Malmo Sweden

Malmo Sweden is one train ride away from Copenhagen. Two incredible cities I’ve already visited.

Put Malmo on your travel list while you visit Copenhagen. And, wet that travel appetite by taking this virtual street art tour during your quarantine hours.

Rome Italy 

My favorite virtual street art tour is the Rome, Italy tour. Its located inside a building that looks like an old abandoned warehouse. Each room has a different feel, and the art is magnificent. In any case, it will keep you busy, you’ll indulge in some street art culture, and you’ll beat those quarantine blues.

Let me break it down for you:

So how can you do these street art virtual tours? Head over to the Googles art and culture website and start your tour. Here is the street art virtual tour site in case you need it.

If you rather do it on your phone, download the Google Art & Culture app. This app has many incredible virtual art tours to get that art fix.

I hope this helps beat those quarantine blues! Got any tips on how to keep busy during this quarantine? Leave me a comment below.

What you'll do

The starting point for any trip to or experience with Russia is Moscow and St. Petersburg.  These two cities consistently take top honors in the annual World Travel Awards and for good reason: world-famous museums, theaters, palaces, historical landmarks, and the list goes on.  Understandably, there isn’t just ONE virtual tour that can do these cities justice; we actually offer EIGHT different virtual tours of Moscow & St. Petersburg!  Below is a list to choose from; these tours are always available for private groups, and at different times during each month if you’d like to join a public group:

-Virtual Moscow: Join me for a virtual tour of Russia’s capital.  We will use 360 degree panoramic views and exclusive pictures to make you feel like you are really there in the heart of Russia!

-Virtual St. Petersburg – This tour is a perfect opportunity for you to see the highlights of Russia’s “Venice of the North”: time-honored royalty, majestic canal views, onion-shaped church domes, and much more!

-Virtual Summer Palaces of Tsars – Join me as we explore three royal estates of the Russian royal family, outside of St. Petersburg: Catherine’s Palace (Pushkin), Peterhoff Palace, and Pavlovsk Palace.

-Virtual Hermitage Museum – Although 90 minutes can hardly do it justice, come explore the world’s 2nd largest  museum, St. Petersburg’s Hermitage Museum.

-Virtual Hermitage Museum: Art Only! – This tour is for art-lovers, as we’ll do a deep dive into some of the Hermitage’s most famous (and not-so-famous) pieces of art!

-Virtual Canal Cruise – Join me for a virtual canal cruise in St. Petersburg.  St. Petersburg is known as the Venice of the  North  because of its beautiful rivers and canals.  Many of the important buildings in the city were  built  to be viewed from the water.

-Virtual Hidden Gems of St. Petersburg – Because Russia’s “cultural capital” is filled with so many  famous  destinations, often equally-deserving but less-known places get overlooked.  On this  virtual  tour, we’ll explore two of those places, the Yusupov Palace and the Faberge Museum (yes, THOSE Faberge Eggs!).

-Virtual Field Trip: Russia for Kids! – This virtual field trip to Russia is for kids up to 12 years old.  We will use our imagination, 360-degree panoramic views, games and dancing to learn about this mysterious  country  halfway around the world.  What kids eat, how they dance, and how they travel; you’ll learn these things and more in this interactive Russia experience!  ***Great for individual classes or home-school groups! 

Interested in scheduling a private virtual tour of Moscow or St. Petersburg?   Inquire now  for custom dates, team-building options, corporate events, school field trips, and more.  Private tours starting at $150.

Meet your guide, Olga

Hi, my name is Olga and I grew up in St. Petersburg.  I have been enchanted with museums and Russia’s rich history since I was a little girl, starting when we would take school field trips to the Hermitage Art Museum.  I have been guiding international guests visiting Russia since 2012, to many of my favorite spots in St. Petersburg and Moscow: Peterhoff Palace, the Hermitage, the Faberge Museum, churches, mansions, and the list goes on.  Since the world went into quarantine in 2020 due to COVID-19, I have been providing virtual tours to Moscow and St. Petersburg and continue to show off Russia’s beauty and history, just on Zoom rather than in-person.  I hope to meet you soon!

Street Art in Belfast

Delve into Belfast's vibrant street art scene on a self-guided walking tour. We've rounded up some of the city's top pieces in our street art map and guide.

Each year, Belfast attracts a host of international artists who add to the ever-evolving canvas of our city’s streets. We’ve rounded up just a small selection of the street art Belfast has to offer. Discover them on a self-guided walking tour using our map below. Our streets are always changing, so while you’re exploring you might even come across new artworks!

Golden Hares of Rathlin Island

Annatomix, 2018 Castle Street

Annatomix’s beautiful geometric hare can be found just off Castle Street, at the entrance to Marquis Street. Though the Irish hare is one of Europe’s rarest animals, some of the largest colonies can be found in Northern Ireland and there’s a group on Rathlin Island, off the north coast of Antrim, with a distinct genetic variation – the ‘golden’ hare.

Keep Her Lit

ADW, 2016 Union Street

With a human heart fitted with a pressure clock set among pipes and chains, this unique piece by ADW has industrial themes, complemented by the electrical box included in the artwork.

In Your Face- Belfast Spring

Studio Gift, 2023 James Street South

This stunning mural on a former linen mill portrays a symbol of new beginnings. Just like the flax flowers from which linen is made, spring is often associated with a fresh start. Traditionally flax plants are given to newly weds to honor their new life together!

Aches, 2020 Kent Street

If you’re talking a stroll down Kent Street, don’t miss Aches 3D mural ‘Disruption’ above the Bingo hall! Captured is Stephen Considine from BipolarBear Wear- an organisation which sells gear to raise money for mental health charities.

Mikey- The Man with the Atom Tattoo

Voyder, 2023 North Street/ McKibben’s Court 

This piece of artwork captures Mikey- a close friend of Voyder’s who pushed him artistically to become the successful artist he is today. Mikey is pictured in a freight yard where the two of them used to paint train carriages. He has now become a talented tattoo artist!

Blurry Eyed

Dan Kitchener, 2016 Talbot Street

This mural depicting a soaked urban street was created freehand without the use of guides or stencils. Find it on Talbot Street in the Cathedral Quarter.

When You Weren't Looking

Kitsune Jolene, 2022 Queen Street

This stunning piece of artwork by Belgian artist Kitsune was nominated as one of the top pieces of street art in the world in 2022. This mural echoes the message that magic always comes your way when you are least expecting it.

R.O.A, 2023 Donegall Street 

Belgian artist R.O.A has painted this large squirrel as part of Hit the North 2023. R.O.A takes his inspiration from animals- particularly showcasing the lifecycle of life and death. Find this distinguished mural on the side of the Irish Times building on Donegall Street.

Still Water

Nomad Clan, 2017 Hill Street

Manchester-based Nomad Clan touch on Belfast’s industrial heritage in this piece, which shows a modern young woman face-to-face with a wolf, representing past tensions and an acknowledgment of past and present.

The Son of Protagoras

MTO, 2014 Talbot Street

This striking piece of art is named after the agnostic Greek philosopher ‘Protagoras’. After learning that there is still a large division between the protestant and catholic communities within Northern Ireland, MTO created this mural. The boy represents the son of peace and the arrows which have killed the dove are symbolic of the two conflicting religions.

The Duel of Belfast, Dance by Candlelight

Conor Harrington, 2012 Hill Street

This stunning piece on Hill Street in the Cathedral Quarter was painted by Irish artist Conor Harrington. It hints towards the colonial West, depicting two duelling men and an onlooker.

Star People

Rocket01, 2023 Kent Street

Take a walk down Kent Street to see this incredible design by Rocket01. The artist’s surreal and futuristic style of painting is truly impressive.

Nesting Time

Andrey Palval, 2023 Union Street

Aundrey Palval’s ‘Nesting Time’ portrays a little tern- typically a type of seabird- mothering a chicken. Palval’s artwork beautifully captures photorealistic images of birds and can be found across the globe. Find it on Kent Street just down from The Sunflower Pub.

Life Preserver

Shane Sutton, High Street

This piece by Shane Sutton demonstrates Belfast’s vulnerability to rising sea levels and the imminent threat of climate change. Shane designed this mural in partnership with Friends of Earth and Strange Spaces.

Smug, 2016 High Street

This stunning portrait can be found on the side of the Ulster Sports Club at the bottom of High Street. The three-story image of a chef with a lobster was created by Australian artist, Smug.

Let Me Unsee

Art of Asbestos, 2022 North Street

Don’t miss this eye catching piece created at Hit the North Street Art Festival 2022 – the mural represents a feeling of being overwhelmed by today’s technological world and the desire to switch off your eyes and process fewer things.

ADW, 2017 Dunbar Street

ADW’s iconic painting of a diver in an antique diving suit carrying a mermaid in his arms can be found on Dunbar Street.

Woman And Parrot

SANCHO, 2018 Gresham Street

Created by Columbian street artist Sancho Medina as part of the Hit the North 2018 festival, this colourful image of a woman and parrot stands over three storeys on Gresham Street. Sancho’s work is inspired by man’s close relationship with nature.

Spirit of Commerce

Irony, 2020 Pottinger’s Entry

Discover this incredible piece by Irony, which was part of the Belfast entries project, on Pottinger’s Entry.

The Acrobat

Alice Pasquini, 2018 Donegall Street

Alice Pasquini’s ‘The Acrobat’ is a tribute to Will Chamberlin, the director of Belfast Circus School who passed away in 2017. This piece portrays an acrobat in a state of repose in mid air, symbolizing Chamberlin’s impact across the community.

Various Pieces

BustArt (2022), Annatomix (2023) Kent Street

Both of these eye catching mural’s were painted as part of Hit the North Festival. Neo-pop artist, Bust, created ‘Various Pieces’ (on the left) as part of Hit the North 2022. Annatomix took inspiration from Bust’s colour palette at this year’s festival and created a cartoon style backdrop for their signature fox.

Claude Monet Virtual Art Tours

Part 1: The Early Years - Engage with Monet's Art Digitally

Dive into the world of Claude Monet, the iconic Impressionist painter, through our immersive "Virtual Art History Tour with Monet." This unique digital experience invites you to embark on a two-hour journey, titled "Explore Monet's Art Online," where you'll have the opportunity to delve deep into the life and works of Monet. Our "Interactive Claude Monet Art Experience" is designed to bring over 100 of his paintings to life, offering an unparalleled exploration of his artistic journey.

Starting from his early years in 1855, this virtual tour traces Monet's path to becoming a pivotal figure in the Impressionist movement, culminating in the height of his career in 1886. You'll witness firsthand the evolution of Monet's artistry, observing how his initial experiments with light and shadow, color dynamics, and brushwork techniques set the stage for the groundbreaking works that would later define his legacy.

Throughout the "Virtual Tour of Monet's Masterpieces," you'll be guided through Monet's most influential periods, with a special focus on his Impressionist era. This period marked a significant departure from traditional painting techniques, as Monet began to capture the transient effects of light and atmosphere, painting en plein air (outdoors) to seize the momentary conditions of the landscape. His innovative use of color and light not only challenged the conventions of the time but also captured the essence of his subjects with unprecedented vibrancy and immediacy.

This digital art history tour is more than just a viewing experience; it's an interactive exploration that allows you to engage with Monet's art in a dynamic and personal way. Through detailed analysis and expert commentary, you'll gain insights into Monet's creative process, his influences, and the historical context that shaped his work. Whether you're a lifelong admirer of Monet or new to his work, this virtual tour offers a rich, educational, and inspiring experience that deepens your appreciation for one of the most celebrated artists in history.

Part 2: The Later Years - Monet's Impressionism Art Tour Online

Embark on an immersive "Virtual Art Tour of Monet's Masterpieces," a journey that not only showcases the genius of Claude Monet but also delves into the intricacies of color theory, a principle that Monet masterfully applied to his art, revolutionizing visual expression. This period, spanning from 1886 to 1920, was a time of significant evolution for Monet, during which he produced over 100 paintings that marked a departure towards a more daring and experimental approach in art.

Monet's exploration of color theory is evident in his series of works, where he experimented with light, shadow, and the natural environment to capture the ephemeral moments of life. His application of color theory went beyond the mere selection of hues; it was about the interaction of colors and how they could evoke different emotions and atmospheres. Monet's paintings from this era demonstrate his understanding of how colors could influence each other and the viewer's perception, creating vibrant, dynamic scenes that seem to pulsate with life.

One of the most iconic series from this period is his "Water Lilies" series, a profound study of light and reflection. Monet's garden in Giverny provided the perfect setting for this exploration, where he painted the water lilies pond at different times of day and seasons, capturing the changing light and its effects on color. This series is a testament to Monet's fascination with the natural world and his ability to translate it into a canvas of mesmerizing beauty and complexity.

The "Haystacks" series further exemplifies Monet's experimental approach to color and light. By painting the same subject at various times of day and seasons, Monet showcased how light and color could alter the appearance of a scene. This series is a masterclass in the use of color to convey time and atmosphere, demonstrating Monet's skill in capturing the transient nature of light.

Monet's "Railway" series, including scenes of the Saint-Lazare train station, highlights his interest in modern life and its interplay with light and steam. These paintings reflect the industrialization of Paris and its surroundings, with Monet using color and light to bring movement and life to the bustling activity of the train station.

Throughout this period, Monet's work became increasingly abstract, focusing more on the elements of color and composition than on the subjects themselves. This shift towards abstraction can be seen as a precursor to the later developments in modern art, with Monet's experiments influencing generations of artists to come.

Join us on this virtual tour to witness the evolution of Monet's style and his profound impact on the art world. Through his masterpieces, we explore not just the beauty of the natural world, but also the complex theories of color and light that underpin his work, offering a deeper understanding of Monet's artistic legacy.

Affordable Access

In today's digital age, virtual visits offer a cost-effective alternative to traditional travel, especially when it comes to exploring international art collections. Traveling to a physical location, particularly overseas, can be a significant financial undertaking. Between airfare, accommodation, and other travel-related expenses, the costs can quickly add up. Moreover, gaining access to some of the world's most renowned art collections can come with a hefty price tag, sometimes amounting to hundreds before entering the building. Beyond the monetary considerations, there's also the unpredictability of the art world. Imagine making the journey only to discover that the specific piece or artist's work you were eager to see is temporarily on loan to another institution. Such scenarios can be disappointing, to say the least. Recognizing these challenges, we have taken the initiative to compile a diverse range of paintings from various sources. Our digital collections ensure that art enthusiasts can access and enjoy these masterpieces without the constraints of geography, cost, or availability.
