Thursday 18th November 2021: a historic date for art, Virtual Reality and for bipeds! We were delighted to attend the inauguration of the first Virtual Reality biennial organised by Art Gate VR.
Artists, gallery owners, environmental experts, volunteers and the entire Art Gate VR team were mobilised for this international art event which took place from 18th November to 19th December.
The lepidopterist, who is well-versed in art history, remembered the Venice Biennale, inaugurated in 1895, the oldest biennal in the world! It welcomed nearly 220,000 visitors who came to admire the Italian artistic abundance of the time. This first biennale took place in a palace and in the adjoining gardens. The biennial in which we took part is of a completely new kind! Our guide in the virtual universe, Tiger Butterfly, led us to the virtual entrance hall of Art Gate VR.
