Названный «крупнейшей в мире арт-платформой», телевизор имеет набор специальных сменных рамок по периметру экрана, которые делают его похожим на чёрную, белую, ореховую или бежевую картинную раму. Владельцы The Frame могут вывести на экран, к примеру, «Подсолнухи» Ван Гога и превратить любую комнату в динамичную галерею — для этого задействована специальная технология последовательного отображения кадров по тщательно разработанному алгоритму.
Услуга, позволяющая превратить телевизор в стенд для произведений искусства, распространяется по подписке и стоит $4,99 в месяц. С момента запуска новой услуги арт-коллекция Samsung разрослась до 800 изображений из ведущих музеев и галерей мира.
TV When It’s On, Art When It’s Off: Samsung Brings the Art of Van Gogh Home with The Frame
Samsung and the Van Gogh Museum Partner to Transform the Living Room With 25 of the Iconic Artist’s Masterpieces coming to the Samsung Art Store
Samsung Electronics America Inc. announced a partnership with the world-renowned Van Gogh Museum to bring the art of Vincent Van Gogh to its award-winning lifestyle TV, The Frame. The Samsung Art Store[1] – the world’s largest art platform for TV – will have 25 masterpieces from the Amsterdam-based museum available for purchase or via subscription for owners of The Frame.
The selected pieces feature landscapes, self-portraits, and still life imagery from some of Van Gogh’s most famous works. With this selection, owners of The Frame will be able to find a Van Gogh painting that suits their personal tastes and their home décor with the option to select a new painting if they ever want to transform the aesthetic of their living space. For example, they can display Van Gogh’s famous Sunflowers when they want to create a warm and welcoming space for a dinner party or they can display Orchard in Blossom to welcome the first signs of spring. They can even create personalized collections to shuffle through a variety of Van Gogh’s masterpieces or if they want to display his celebrated work alongside work from other artists.
Owners of The Frame now have more ways than ever to customize the look and feel of their room. The Samsung Art Store houses an ever-growing and diverse library of artwork from some of the most prominent museums, galleries and artists around the world.
