Instagram is all regarding delighting our visual fancies, whatever they’ll be. (Cute dogs? Check. Drool-worthy desserts? Check.
Squishy, crackling slime?
Check.) So it’s
not shocking that the
art world has been experimenting with the platform in its own attention-grabbing ways. Enterprising artists, for example, currently use their profiles to sell directly to collectors. And
as Caroline Goldstein
reports for artnet News , the Bass museum of
Art in Miami beach recently
launched an exhibition which will live solely on Instagram.
