UNTITLED, ART and Artland team up to create the world’s first virtual reality art fair, constructed with the latest advancements in cutting-edge technology to provide a fully immersive and interactive digital experience.
“We are beyond excited to be launching UNTITLED, ART Online at a time when the art world is relying more heavily on digital engagement,”
states Jeffrey Lawson, founder of UNTITLED, ART.
“This platform, the only virtual reality experience available in the art market, is something we have been hard at work on with Artland for nearly a year now and have decided to launch it earlier than intended in an effort to help reinvigorate the global art economy. Not only have we created an original and innovative virtual experience that is as close to being at UNTITLED, ART Miami Beach as virtually possible, but we are also providing our clients with a state-of-the-art e- commerce platform at a time when they need it the most.”
Launching this summer the inaugural edition of UNTITLED, ART Online, powered by Artland, will feature approximately 40 international exhibitors, set within UNTITLED, ART’s iconic light- filled tent that has come to define the Miami Beach edition. The dynamic online fair, which will be accessible 24-hours a day when it launches, will showcase unique booth presentations and allow for life-like navigation through space, where visitors can quite literally stroll the aisles looking for new discoveries and unexpected juxtapositions that have come to define the art fair experience. Exhibitors will have the ability to customize their booth designs and re-hang artworks that have sold.
One of the most dynamic features of UNTITLED, ART Online is its e-commerce platform which facilitates real time buying, through its global financial partner, Escrow. The Buy Now option allows for transactions to take place on the spot, at all hours of the day, without the cumbersome need to engage in offline conversations. The fair itself is also available to be downloaded with all of the interactive features still available and performing in real time.
“The partnership we have created with Jeff and his team at UNTITLED, ART is unlike anything the art world has seen before. As leaders in art and technology, we have developed a world-class digital art fair by combining architectural modeling, gaming innovations, and e-commerce. And, the most exciting part is, this is only phase one of what we have planned,”
said Mattis Curth, co-founder and CEO of Artland.
UNTITLED, ART Online, powered by Artland will feature a transparent fee model, designed to minimize upfront costs to participating galleries, all of whom pay a nominal fee depending on booth size to cover dedicated IT support. Exhibitors have two choices in booth size – 200 square feet priced at $1,000 USD or 400 square feet priced at $3,000 USD – and participate in a sliding-scale commission structure based on sales. untitled.artland.com
