How do I add art to the map?
You can add art to the map by contributing a public marker with a location, short description and photo when this functionality is enabled in the app. Keep submissions factual, respectful and limited to public or publicly visible cultural context. Do not include private personal data.
What to include
A useful marker includes an accurate location, a clear title, a concise description, known artist attribution and a photo when appropriate. If you are unsure about authorship, say so rather than inventing details.
What not to include
Do not include private addresses, personal details, unsafe access instructions or speculative claims. art.kubus is built around public cultural records and should not encourage trespassing or expose private information.
How markers improve the archive
Each marker can become part of a public art archive: a record that helps others discover the work, improves cultural visibility and may later connect to artists, institutions, AR layers or archive replication.
If a feature is unavailable
If marker submission is not visible in your app build, treat it as a gated or developing feature. Follow community updates and use available feedback channels instead of assuming a hidden workflow.
Frequently asked questions
Can I add my own artwork?

Should I add private collection works?
No. Focus on public or institutionally shareable cultural context and avoid private data.
Can markers connect to AR?
In the long term, selected records may connect to AR layers, but AR features are in development.
