Pixel-Art Game: Café Terrace At Night

This 3-staged memory game invites you to observe masterpieces closely. Historically, a masterpiece was a work of a very high standard, produced in order to obtain membership of a guild or academy. Since the author never went to art school, her untrained eye wondered: "How should I look at art in order to fully appreciate it?" Trying to answer this question, she decided to design a system of observation based on different steps: games and activities following a set scheme that triggers the player to look at a masterpiece on a different scale. Pixel-Art Game allows you to observe masterpieces closely. Match the original image with its pixelized copies by zooming into Van Gogh's famous Café Terrace at Night. The painter's colour and light use is emphasised through the pixels of the digitalized image, taking art into our contemporary digital language. With a light packaging, perfect to take along with you, Pixel-Art Game offers several games in one set. Each of these 3 games is a step to understand the artwork better, playing together with multiple players. Besides the three games, the set allows you to create your own masterpiece.
