The Art of VR

The Art of VR was a two-day festival to discover award-winning content produced by the field’s leading innovators in Virtual Reality. A robust programme of live demos interactive showcases complemented a series of panel discussions on major advancements in VR and its vast potential in fine art, advertising, design, travel, real estate and healthcare.

Among the highlights was a conversation on the future of VR in museums featuring participants from the Museum of Natural History, the MoMA and the Whitney Museum. This panel was one of several festival components curated by artist-in-residence Gabriel Barcia-Colombo, who has also curated a selling exhibition of tech-based art that ran in parallel to the festival.
