O&A London and Gazelli Art House’s “Afterspace” Art Project for London Design Festival
O&A London and Gazelli Art House have announced a collaborative art project “Afterspace” that will be held from September 15 through September 23 during London Design Festival. The project aims to explore the links between revolutionary digital art forms and traditional elements of space organization.“Afterspace” project aims to integrate new virtual experiences with physical spaces created by designers. “Two floors of the gallery will be integrated into one exhibiting space. The visitors can enjoy the physical space created by designers presenting the O&A London furniture collection and the VR art-works of Michael Takeo Magruder, Eran Tsafrir, Tom Szirtes, Alexander Adderley, Xavier Sole, and others. The artists work with new media including real-time data, digital archives, immersive environments, mobile devices, and virtual worlds to explore our media-rich world,” says O&A.O&A London brand was created by the talented duo of architect Oleg Klodt and designer Anna Agapova. The design team created a furniture collection that completely transforms the idea of the role that furniture plays in interiors. Oleg and Anna hope to bring to light to the world wonders that are more precious, more beautiful, and more everlasting than life itself.Gazelli Art House is a contemporary art gallery that supports a wide range of international artists, presenting a broad and dynamic programme to a diverse audience through global public projects and exhibition spaces in London and Baku.Oleg Klodt and Anna Agapova say, “In our throw-away society, when not only the value of possessions but also real human connection is being lost, we wanted to make something that would stand the test of time. Within 20 to 30 years, functionality and so-called ‘digitality’ could completely replace the decorative and aesthetic aspects of interior design. Nevertheless, we are sure that architects and designers will continue to create spaces that link us to the past. And there’s no doubt people will continue to desire spaces that leave them calm and comfortable; places where they can explore real human connection whilst enjoying innovative visual experiences.”http://www.blouinartinfo.com/ Founder: Louise Blouin Read more
