Artpaper is a small, quiet Mac app from the team at Gikken that turns your desktop into a rotating art gallery. Instead of a static photo, it sets famous paintings from museums and galleries around the world as your wallpaper, in high 5K resolution, and can refresh the picture automatically so you regularly see something new.

Key Features

  • A large hand-picked collection of artworks from well-known museums and galleries
  • Wallpapers prepared in 5K quality, so paintings stay sharp on Retina displays
  • Automatic rotation on a schedule you choose, from frequent changes to daily or slower
  • Shows the painting title and artist, so you learn a little about each work
  • Lives neatly in the menu bar and lets you build a list of favourite paintings

How to Download

  1. Click the green Download button on this page to go to the download options for Artpaper.
  2. Alternatively, search for Artpaper on the Mac App Store or the developer's website and get the app from there.
  3. Open the app, grant it permission to change your wallpaper if macOS asks, and pick how often you want a new painting.

System Requirements

Artpaper is a lightweight utility that runs on a recent version of macOS and works on both Intel and Apple silicon Macs. Because the artwork is high resolution, a Retina display shows it at its best, and you will want some free disk space for the image collection.

FAQs

Where do the paintings come from?
