“Vi sfidiamo a ricreare le opere d’arte con cose e persone che avete in casa. Scegliete la vostra opera preferita. Trovate tre oggetti sparsi per casa. Ricreatela“. Con questo tweet del 25 marzo, il Getty Museum di Los Angeles ha sollecitato milioni di follower a riprodurre un’opera d’arte tra le mura di casa e postarne la foto su twitter con l’hashtag #GettyMuseumChallenge.

We challenge you to recreate a work of art with objects (and people) in your home. ? Choose your favorite artwork

? Find three things lying around your house⠀

? Recreate the artwork with those items And share with us. pic.twitter.com/9BNq35HY2V — Getty (@GettyMuseum) March 25, 2020

La sfida del museo americano è nata per intrattenere e coinvolgere gli appassionati d’arte di mezzo mondo costretti a casa dopo le misure estreme necessarie per arginare la diffusione del contagio da coronavirus.

Accolta con entusiasmo, la social challenge è diventata ben presto virale con centinaia dia immagini di utenti che hanno riprodotto le opere d’arte in modo geniale, bizzarro, esilarante, servendosi di capi d’abbigliamento, bottiglie, scatole, oggetti e accessori vari.

Ecco alcune delle tantissime immagini pubblicate su twitter dagli appassionati d’arte:
