Abstract
This chapter focuses on a use of augmented reality that is more closely related to traditional painting and sculpture than to interactive game-like AR installations. Based on an analysis of the author’s experimental paintings and sculptures, presented in his solo exhibition Hidden Realities and the outdoor installation The Enterprise Jigsaw, it deals with a particular type of augmented reality paintings that integrate gallery-quality art prints of digital paintings with augmentation by 2D and 3D objects. This type of painting can provide one easy and reliable solution to the acute problem of the saleability of Augmented Reality Art. Alongside theoretical considerations, the first ever augmented reality painting for sale on Amazon is presented – the author’s artwork The Half Kiss. Similar possibilities for AR sculptures are also analysed.
