Even though most of us are stuck at home and can’t go out and enjoy art in museums, that doesn’t mean that life is boring or uncultured. The J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles (or the Getty for short) challenged people to post photos of themselves recreating their favorite works of art from the safety of their homes.
The Getty’s fans responded with a lot of enthusiasm and flooded social media with their unique artistic interpretations. We’ve collected some of the best, so scroll down and feast your eyes. Don’t forget to upvote your faves and share which ones you loved best, dear Readers.

People are having a lot of fun becoming living works of art, but this isn’t the first time folks have done this. In fact, the Getty Museum challenge was inspired by an Instagram account from Amsterdam called Tussen Kunst en Quarantaine (aka Between Art and Quarantine). So be sure to check them out as well. However, the Getty isn’t the only museum doing a challenge like this. The Pinchuk Art Centre in Kyiv, Ukraine, also challenged the art community to reproduce their fave art masterpieces by taking part in the #mystetstvovdoma or #artathome challenge. Check out our post about the Pinchuk Art Centre’s challenge right here.
