Children's NPM Digital Art Exhibition

The exhibition, currently showing at National Palace Museum in Taipei until September 16, 2012, focuses on "integrating art and technology" (http://www.npm.gov.tw/en/visiting/exhibit/exhibit_02.htm?docno=842). Using digital art techniques to interpret treasures in the NPM collection, it provides a new appearance for these precious artworks. With easy to understand methods, the introduction to the digital artworks also includes scientific principles applied to the installations. For example, behind the digital artwork Magic Crystal Ball lies lens technology to transform NPM masterpieces into three-dimensional images right before the viewers' eyes, creating a rich and creative combination of art and technology. In addition, this exhibition takes classic works of art in the NPM to design "National Treasure Mascots" that represent its collection of jades, bronzes, porcelains, curios, paintings, calligraphies, and books and documents, providing young audiences with an interesting and lively way to understand these categories.
