Google's Arts and Culture Lab is working to preseve art and heritage around the world. Not by retouching of course but by digitising them using cameras. This not only makes the world art accessible to people but preserves it digitally. In this exclusive interview with Laurent Gaveau, Head of Google Arts and Culture Lab, we talk about Google's art endeavour -- how it can help people discover artwork, museum collections, places or artist right from their mobile phone

Google's lab does the work of digitising places and precious artwork. It has content from over 1200 museums and archives who have partnered with the Google Cultural Institute. Accessible through the app and website, the content also includes virtual tour in around 2,779 museum, apart from photos, videos, manuscripts and artworks. The Google Arts and Culture app is available for both iOS and Android.
