Although virtual galleries do not come with a real people; or cocktails on arrival, as virtual host you are still able to create exhibitions that have a profound influence on your visitors. Think back to exhibitions you’ve attended in the past. What drew you in? How did specific elements guide your experience, and how did they make you feel?
When curating a show, the issue of rhythm and pace is an important consideration. Rather like a piece of music, the flow of an exhibition moves the visitor through a series of visual verses, each with it’s own mood. They leave feeling emotionally charged, in response to the impact of the works themselves and to how they were received, due to your curation.
Exhibbit provides curators with a wealth of tools to create these tailored experiences. For instance, the Hero feature gently guides visitors to a selected artwork to begin their exhibition viewing. As you are in a three dimensional space there is a lot of choice for both real and virtual exhibition viewing. Upon entering the gallery, proximity of artworks and information have a major influence upon how your viewers connect with the presentation.
The image above shows the entry point for the Long Gallery, where visitors are facing towards WALL D and WALL C. These are the best walls for your Hero piece because visitors are placed gently in front of your Hero artwork, narrative or video to begin their exhibition viewing. The journey from the entry point to these two walls is elegant and reasonably quick, creating an engaging introduction.
Exhibbit also offers features, such as wall buttons next to the artworks for inquiries and links to your website pages. Adding video and audio that trigger based on proximity deepens the engagement, offering more than just a visual journey—it becomes a multi-sensory experience.
With tools like Grid-assisted curation, multi layered wall graphics, text and the ability to preview your exhibition in high resolution, you can present polished, professional exhibitions every time.
