The Getty put out a call to the people and boy have the people responded. On March 25th, the museum sent out a Tweet accompanied by an Instagram post challenging people everywhere to recreate some of their favourite artworks while they isolate at home during the COVID-19 pandemic.
It’s one of many ways that people have stayed connected and gotten involved from the safety of their own home. The request was simple: chose an artwork and include at least three things from around the house. The results have been great as people have committed to the call so we’ve got a few corralled for you now. And if you feel so moved, create your own masterpiece at home!
