Artkick makes it possible for you to display all your most favorite pictures, artwork, photographs from artists, and really create a gallery tailor made to you. The app makes it possible to view all kinds of photographs from public sources and you can import your photos from Picasa, Facebook, SmugMug, Flickr, Dropbox, and Instagram. For instance you can take a walk through a number of world-famous museums and even read details about the photograph or piece of art right on your screen. If you happen to be an art student this is a great way to learn about and appreciate art from around the world.
