Team members from Dimit Architects recently took an outing to the Cleveland Museum of Art to experience the ArtLens Gallery.

The tour was led by Jane Alexander, Chief Information Officer of the museum. Ms. Alexander highlighted the interactive exhibits which are designed to encourage engagement with the gallery’s featured works. ArtLens uses gesture-sensing projections that respond to body movement and facial recognition. Interactive games highlighting composition, symbols, gesture + emotion, and purpose encourage visitors to interact with art in new ways.

The team also visited The Jazz Age exhibit of American style in the 1920’s. The Jazz Age features timeless works including local legends such as Viktor Shreckengost, Rose Iron Works and architects Walker & Weeks.

“ARTLENS Gallery is a multi-faceted, innovative experience that allows you, your family, and friends to look closer, dive deeper, and have fun discovering the museum’s collection using award-winning digital technology. Create your own original artwork in ArtLens Studio, engage with masterworks of art and touchscreen-free interactives in ArtLens Exhibition, and connect with the museum’s world-renowned collection at the ArtLens Wall.”
