VR-NISSAGE 3 – A room scale virtual reality art exhibition of paintings by artist John Wentz

## About This Game
VR-NISSAGE #3 with John Wentz is an interactive art exhibition featuring
twenty-two original paintings by muralist, street artist and portrait painter
John Wentz from San Francisco. This art exhibition is downloaded directly to
your computer where it is experienced only in virtual reality, and you can
freely walk around in the exhibition space and your real-life motions are
reflected in the virtual reality environment.
This is not a game to play, it is simply a virtual reality art exhibition to
explore and see these amazing works of art. If you enjoy visiting art
exhibitions, but you can’t due to the coronavirus, this is a safe way for you
to visit an art exhibition from your home. Set in a natural space to display
these paintings, virtual reality transforms your room into a serene open space
to escape to. Each painting has been carefully replicated in virtual reality
to exact measurements, color and texture of the original artworks.
For the VR-NISSAGE series, we set out to create a better experience on every
level than going to an actual art gallery opening. Having spent more than a
decade going to prominent art galleries around the world, we have a good
understanding of what makes for a good experience at a vernissage. VR-NISSAGE
is the next evolution of the art gallery. An art gallery that only exists in
virtual reality, but can reach a much larger international audience. Each
virtual reality exhibition space is totally designed around the artworks to
present the paintings in a truly fascinating and engaging environment for the
visitor. You can choose to visit the virtual reality exhibition alone to see
the paintings quietly, meet with just your friends from around the world and
discuss the art, or converse with new people and other art aficionados.
For each exhibition we produce, we create a hyperrealistic true-to-life 3D
live animated model of the artist that can can meet and have a conversation
with collectors inside the virtual space. The artist wears a full body 3D
motion capture suit with realtime facial scanning so that the avatar of the
artist in virtual reality can interact live and have a conversation with those
attending the exhibition.
Since 2012, we have worked producing exhibitions internationally with some of
the most prominent contemporary artists in the world.

John WENTZ BIO
John Wentz is a contemporary artist whose work is an exploration of process
and technique. Working within the classical idiom of the human figure, his
goal is to reduce and simplify the image to its core fundamentals:
composition, color, and mark-making. Paint application and brush strokes are
broad and simplified as a means to connect and convey these ideas to the
viewer with an abstract sensibility. He has had 5 solo exhibitions in San
Francisco and numerous group exhibitions both nationally and internationally.
His works have appeared in many publications and have won multiple awards.
