bside – Where Every Artwork Tells a Story

bside is your personal art companion, built for those who live and breathe art. Whether wandering a gallery opening, exploring an international art fair, or revisiting your home collection, bside transforms every encounter with an artwork into a lasting connection — with the piece, the artist, and a global community of art lovers.

Capture the Moment. Discover the Story.
At the heart of bside is the Artwork Camera — point it at any artwork to instantly unlock its world. From title and medium to exhibition history and artist biography, every capture becomes a gateway to deeper discovery. Missed the placard or forgot the artist's name? bside has you covered. Captures are automatically organized into collections tied to exhibitions and galleries, creating a living archive of your art journey.

Each artwork carries a provenance timeline: a visual record of where it’s been shown, who has captured it, and which collectors and art lovers have crossed paths with it before you. When you capture a work, your name joins its story. Your "You Were There" badge marks your place in art history — however small or monumental that moment may be.

Your Art Collection, Beautifully Organized
bside makes building and curating your collection effortless. Organize captures by artist, exhibition, or gallery, and share them with followers who share your taste. Whether managing works across multiple fairs or capturing your first gallery visit, bside scales to your world.

Edit, reorder, merge, and share collections with a few taps. Generate QR codes and shareable links to let friends step inside your curated perspective. Your collection is personal, portable, and always with you.

Explore Artists. Follow Their World.
Every artist profile is a living showcase — works, exhibition history, upcoming shows, and a community of collectors and followers. Subscribe to artists you love to never miss an exhibition, new work, or gallery announcement. Leave comments, engage in artwork-centered conversations, and discover emerging and established artists through curated feeds.

Weekly platform highlights feature the most-captured artists, trending exhibitions, and curated picks from the bside community. It’s a living art ecosystem shaped by real people at real exhibitions.

Connect with Art Lovers Around the World
Follow collectors, artists, and enthusiasts from Seoul to São Paulo, Paris to New York. See what they’re capturing, which exhibitions they attend, and which artists inspire them. Share collections, receive trusted artwork recommendations, and build a global network rooted in a shared love of art. The bside community spans first-time fair-goers, veteran collectors, galleries, and artists connecting directly with their audience.

Discover Exhibitions. Never Miss a Show.
Location-based check-ins link captures to the exhibition context — who was there, what was on show, and where the works traveled. Get notified when artists you follow announce upcoming shows. Explore gallery profiles, browse exhibitions, and plan your next art experience directly through the app.

Built for the Art Lifestyle
bside is clean, intuitive, and beautiful. Enjoy dark mode, fluid collection browsing, pinch-to-zoom artwork viewing, and a curated feed that feels like a gallery stroll. Available in English and Korean, with more languages coming soon.

Whether you’re a collector, gallery-goer, artist, or someone who believes art deserves more than a fleeting glance — bside is your companion for a life lived alongside great art.
