A fine-art audio guide

Look closely.

Hear Art turns the world's great paintings into intimate narrated tours. As the story unfolds, the frame moves to the detail being discussed: a glance, a hand, a single brushstroke.

Narration with direction

Hear exactly where to look.

Each tour is timed to the painting. When the narration turns to Mona Lisa's eyes or Liberty's raised flag, Hear Art brings that detail forward. It feels less like reading a label and more like a guide leaning in to say, look here.

Made for looking

A quiet guide, not another feed.

No advertising, accounts, scores, or distractions. Just the painting, the voice, and the details that make the work worth standing before.

Every work narrated

Six-part editorial tours move from first impression to composition, gesture, context, and the whole canvas.
