During the Festival, the Ars Electronica Center will focus on cultural heritage. Thanks to a cooperation with Iconem Paris, supported by the Institut Francais d’Autriche, visitors will be able to experience a giant 3D model of Notre-Dame Cathedral, which caught fire in 2019. The model is based on scans by art historian Andrew Tallon (1969-2018) – and is being prepared for Deep Space 8K by the Ars Electronica Futurelab team. The cooperation with the Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza Madrid, supported by the Spanish Embassy in Vienna, focuses on the early Renaissance: gigapixel images of Vittore Carpaccio’s painting Young Knight in a Landscape (1510) will be on display.
