Abstract:
ViewPaint is a viewing system for paintings. This system was produced to propose a new exhibition method using digital technology to art museums. In developing this system, we have tried to realize the idea that if viewers can explore a painting converted into a three-dimensional space, it is possible to foster understanding and imagination, with viewers considering why artists chose certain compositions, what motifs are depicted, and what the background to the period was.
