ART BABBLE



Quality online art resources have traditionally been difficult to find.
Enter ART BABBLE

"ArtBabble was conceived, initiated, designed, built, sculpted, programmed, shot, edited, painted and launched by a cross-departmental collection of individuals at the Indianapolis Museum of Art (IMA). It is intended to showcase video art content in high quality format from a variety of sources and perspectives.ArtBabble was created so others will join in spreading the world of art through video."

I have to admit that they hooked me with their slogan: "Play Art Loud".

The site is a catalog of videos related to many forms of and formats for art.
Check "channels" and you'll find videos covering a wide array of topics ranging from abstract art to video art, mediums used and cultural art.
The "artist" tab compiles past and present artists and their works.

You can use the site with or without an account. It appears that creating account allows for saving of videos and email updates from the site.

Play Art Loud!
