KUNSTMATRIX'S CONCEPT STILL WINS NOTORIETY

The Kunstmatrix creates virtual exhibition spaces for artists, galerists and collectors, and combines these exhibitions in a major internet portal. Instead of clicking on static photographic pictures of works of Art from an exhibition, the visitor of the Kunstmatrix can move himself freely in a 3D version. Therefore he can spatially experience paintings, sculptures, light installations and sound Art. With their business idea, the company won in 2008 the Founder Contest of the Ministry of Economy and Technology.

Scores of renowned galleries such as Hamish Morrison or Christian Hosp or auction houses like Bassenge and Hauff & Auvermann have set this forward-looking planning software up, in order to enable collectors worldwide to get a qualitative first-class access to their Art. In the same way, the Kunstmatrix serves archiving purposes or facilitates presentation proofs of complicated works of Art for curators. Artists such as Heinz Handschick, Volker Henze and Ted Marschall have already shown their enthusiasm for the possibilities of Art presentations independently from galleries.
