Show HN: Artwork List – map of artworks near you
Artwork List, a map-based art discovery tool, launched to help users find and track artworks nearby.
Artwork List, a web app for discovering and tracking art, launched publicly on Hacker News. The tool combines a map-based "nearby" feature to surface artworks and collections in the user's vicinity with list-building functionality to save and organize pieces they want to see.
The creator, who posted to Show HN, described the motivation as personal: wanting more art in daily life prompted the build. The core feature is geographic discovery—users can zoom into their home area or travel destinations to browse collections and artworks nearby. A secondary feature lets users create lists to track and organize art they've encountered, turning the platform into both a discovery tool and a personal curation space.
The app aggregates art collections at the location level, surfacing both major institutions and smaller collections that users might otherwise miss while traveling or exploring locally. The interface emphasizes browsing rather than search, positioning it as a way to stumble upon art rather than hunt for a specific piece.
No funding, team size, or prior iteration was mentioned. The project exists as a live web experience accessible at artworklist.com/nearby.
