ARTHAUS ACADEMY / THE WATCH LIBRARY

One place.
Many ways of seeing.

20 landmark painting films. 12 narrated Academy episodes. Follow your favorite artist, find a place you know, or watch a painting come together.

The hosts are AI-generated characters portraying historical painters; their voices are synthetic. Each painting is an original composition made with Arthaus's digital brush engine, inspired by the artist. It is not a work by, or a reproduction of a work by, the historical artist. Landmark painting films show the recorded construction of original digital works inspired by the artists.
