Artcast has announced the launch of several standout new features to its popular app, available on major smart TVs and streaming devices.
These updates continue the ongoing enhancement of the Artcast experience, offering users even greater control over how they engage with world-class art in their homes, offices, and commercial environments.
Artcast’s platform has transformed how people experience art by streaming thousands of paintings, photographs, and video art pieces directly to screens, turning any room into an immersive, visually stunning space. From luxury residences and boutique hotels to healthcare facilities and creative offices, streaming art with Artcast has become a captivating way to elevate ambiance, support well-being, and create memorable visual experiences.
The newly released features are designed to further personalize and enrich that experience:
1. New Art Genre Categories
To better serve diverse tastes and discovery, Artcast has added new genre categories including:
- Art Movements – Curated collections organized by influential periods and styles (e.g., Impressionism, Bauhaus, Pop Art).
- Sculpture – High-resolution photography and video of iconic and contemporary sculptures from around the world.
- Sleep & Relaxation – Gentle, slow-paced visuals paired with calming soundtracks specifically designed to support sleep, meditation, and stress relief.
- Enhanced Music Options
Artcast now offers an expanded soundtrack library, enhancing its art playlists with new options in chill out, classical, and new age music genres. Whether users are relaxing at home, hosting guests, or setting a calming tone for a workplace or spa, the ability to select soundscapes that match the mood of the artwork provides an even more immersive and emotionally resonant experience.
3. Additional Matte/Frame for Accenting Artwork
In response to user feedback, Artcast has introduced a broader selection of mattes, allowing users to select from a variety of colors and styles to frame their art on-screen. This new feature gives users the ability to match the displayed artwork more closely with their interior design aesthetic — whether bold and modern, neutral and minimal, or warm and traditional.
4. Expanded Selection of Seamless Video Loops
Artcast has significantly expanded its library of seamless video art, with more options now available for looped visual experiences. These high-definition, continuously looping visuals are ideal for settings that benefit from ambient movement, such as hotel lobbies, lounges, wellness centers, relaxation rooms and in your home, helping to create a tranquil and captivating environment that engages without distraction.
“These new features represent our commitment to creating the most dynamic and user-friendly art streaming experience available,” said Derek Ostensen, Vice President of Content and Distribution at Artcast. “Whether you’re curating the perfect vibe at home, enriching a guest experience at your business, or simply enjoying the healing power of art, Artcast now gives you even more tools to personalize your visual environment.”
Artcast’s app is available on leading smart TVs and streaming platforms, including Apple TV, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and Android TV. With an ever-growing library of content and a focus on innovation, Artcast continues to redefine how art is experienced in the digital age.
