Imagine picking up the phone to ask Leonardo da Vinci or Vincent van Gogh what they were thinking while they worked. To celebrate its 15th anniversary, the Google Arts & Culture app just rolled out a major redesign. The standout in this update is a new AI experiment called “Dial-an-Artist,” which brings people closer to art than they might have imagined.
Pick up the phone for a deep conversation with an art master
“Dial-an-Artist” is an AI-powered interactive experience featuring an interface designed like an invitation to chat across time and space. Users can engage in simulated conversations with famous historical artists and cultural figures. Whether you want to ask about the hidden details behind a famous painting, discuss sources of inspiration, or understand the historical context of the era, the responses offer highly immersive insights. Keep in mind that this feature is an inspiring simulated conversation experiment, not an exact recreation of historical records.
A time-traveling fashion show and more experiences
Alongside Dial-an-Artist, this update introduces another fun AI experiment called “Chrono Look.” This feature blends the user’s image with clothing styles from different historical periods, using detailed sketches and realistic rendering to show what you would look like dressed in clothing from the past.
Paired with a redesigned single-feed homepage, users can easily browse short cultural stories and daily highlights every time they open the app. The built-in city guides have also expanded to include 27 new destinations, making it easier to explore local cultural landmarks and current exhibitions worldwide. Open the updated Google Arts & Culture app now to try out these surprising interactive features.
