Recreating Performance & Installation Art in VR

Activity: Talk or presentation typesInvited talk

Description

Invited presentation at international conference. Panel - How to transfer care?. Presenting results and work in progress from projects developed from InGAME UKRI creative clusters project.
Abstract: Experiential artworks can often be inaccessible to audiences for various reasons and are often difficult to restage in real life. VR/XR techniques are becoming a valuable tool to open up such works to larger audiences and also for works which cannot be displayed in their original form. This presentation from Adam Lockhart will cover two examples of artworks that are being recreated in VR. One is a performance art piece, MAINBEAM by Charlie Hooker, which originally took place in 1983, and the other is the Eduardo Paolozzi Studio at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art.
