In the case of art, a case could be made that most paintings, and especially sculptures, can be better appreciated by being seen physically. (Of course, if your name is Hunter Biden, close inspection is probably not necessary in order to get a good price!)
There was an interesting startup called Daylighted--I almost invested in it, but decided against--focused on displaying art on screens which would be placed in areas such as hotel lobbies, offices, etc, giving the property owner/occupant a nice source of changing artwork and the artist an outlet for sales. Sorry to see that they didn't make it.
Same as it's always been-find a way to make things better, more efficient or faster or cheaper, better quality, etcetera, and you can make a hell of a lot of money. Just by cutting out one step of the process you can create a remarkably lucrative business
