Virtual Efficiency

Curating and setting up exhibitions, whether physical or virtual, comes with unique challenges and exciting opportunities for both curators and artists. Virtual platforms are also increasingly providing innovative solutions for both the curator and viewer.

Virtual exhibitions offer solutions to some challenges faced for physical shows. Not confined by physical space, Exhibbit exhibitions allow for the simultaneous display of a large number of works. With every Gallery Subscription, each user has five live exhibitions to curate and share, allowing for multiple shows to be visible from one Gallery Window.

The digital format also eliminates the need for costly technical setups; artworks are streamed directly to viewers’ devices. Visible from desktop, mobile and tablet devices, Exhibbit does not require the viewer to download any software or app to view exhibitions.

Virtual exhibitions also offer greater control over viewing conditions, allowing for a more accessible viewing environment for every visitor.

Setting up a physical exhibition can come with significant costs for space rental, installation, and transportation. For independent artists or smaller galleries, these financial burdens can be overwhelming. Virtual exhibitions offer a cost-effective solution, as they eliminate expenses like space rental, transportation, and insurance.

Complementing Physical with Virtual

One of the most exciting aspects of virtual exhibitions is their ability to complement physical ones. Curators can create a hybrid experience, where the virtual exhibition mirrors the physical layout, allowing online visitors to explore the show remotely. Alternatively, the virtual exhibition can offer additional content, such as behind-the-scenes footage and artist interviews, enhancing the audience’s engagement and expanding the exhibition’s scope. That audience can revisit your virtual version of a show, give feedback they couldn’t in person, and share with others who couldn’t make it.

However you may choose to use Exhibbit, it enables curators, artists, schools and institutions to share art widely and further than before - and well, that can only be a positive.
