It's really quite remarkable what 3D printing is capable of in the art world. Talented artists are using the technology to create works of art the likes of which have never been seen before, and many which could not have been created by any other means. But even ancient art is affected by 3D printing, as we've seen many times before. Museums are embracing the technology as a way to make art and artifacts available for handling and studying, as well as to create perfect replicas for people to keep in their own homes. And those replicas really are perfect, or as close to it as possible. That's what a small design studio and factory in China is discovering, anyway. Xian Chizi Digital Technology has been working to replicate several pieces of ancient Chinese art through 3D printing, and the results are as close to the originals so as to be almost indistinguishable.
