Abstract
This thesis explores the application of virtual reality (VR) technology to enhance art exhibitions, aiming to provide an immersive and interactive experience for art enthusiasts. The research delves into the potential benefits and challenges of integrating VR technology into traditional art exhibition spaces. By leveraging VR tools, audiences can engage with artworks in innovative ways, transcending physical limitations and enhancing their understanding and appreciation of art. The study begins with an examination of the background of using VR in the art world, highlighting key trends and developments that have shaped the intersection of technology and art. Through a comprehensive literature review, the research investigates existing studies, projects, and initiatives that have explored the use of VR in art exhibitions. This review provides insights into the various approaches, technologies, and outcomes associated with incorporating VR into the art experience. The research methodology section outlines the strategies employed to investigate the impact of VR on enhancing art exhibitions. Utilizing both qualitative and quantitative research methods, the study gathers data from art professionals, VR experts, and art enthusiasts to gain diverse perspectives on the subject. Through surveys, interviews, and observational studies, the research seeks to identify the key factors influencing the successful integration of VR technology in art exhibition settings. The findings of the study reveal the multifaceted implications of utilizing VR in art exhibitions. From enhancing accessibility and inclusivity to fostering creativity and interactivity, VR technology offers a range of opportunities for transforming the way art is experienced and interpreted. However, challenges such as technical barriers, cost considerations, and ethical concerns also emerge as significant factors that must be addressed in the implementation of VR-enhanced art exhibitions. In the discussion section, the research critically analyzes the implications of the findings and explores potential strategies for overcoming the challenges associated with integrating VR into art exhibition spaces. By considering the perspectives of stakeholders and experts in the field, the study proposes recommendations for maximizing the benefits of VR technology while mitigating its limitations in the context of art exhibitions. In conclusion, this thesis advocates for the strategic and thoughtful integration of VR technology in art exhibitions to create engaging and enriching experiences for audiences. By harnessing the power of VR to transcend physical boundaries and stimulate creativity, art institutions can redefine the ways in which art is curated, presented, and experienced. The study underscores the importance of embracing technological innovations in the art world to foster a dynamic and inclusive cultural landscape that resonates with contemporary audiences.
