Customer Reviews
Promising
Obviously not a full functioning app, but in the five artists I was supposed to be exposed to, during the quiz, it consistently chose 3 of the 5 to quiz me over and the majority seemed to be of Rembrandt. In 40 questions, da Vinci never showed up, and Picasso only showed up once. Also, some of the captions included the artist's name. Probably not a good idea during a quiz.
Seems promising - if the full app would go down to $0.99, I'd highly consider getting it, but as it is, I don't think it would have enough replay value for me to keep it on my iPod permanantly.
I truly enjoy art, but this was only partially entertaining as the few artists on the demo version were very easily recognized, e.g., Cezanne and Van Gogh. As it is, I'd prefer to learn about Miro, Calder, Kandinsky, Chuck Close, and other modernists. A little too focused on classical stuff for me. Could be a good app though, for others who would like to get a good, albeit small, look at the classics.
