For Immediate Release – June 12, 2012 – New Rochelle, NY
Museum Editions, Ltd. announces the addition of an exciting, new, interactive, virtual 3D art gallery to Charles Fazzino’s 3D pop art website. Developed by New Zealand firm EXHIBBIT, the gallery revolutionizes the way three-dimensional artwork is displayed on the internet by utilizing an intuitive interface that creates an exhibition experience much closer to reality than anything else online.
“We are happy with the result and excited to see Charles’ clients enjoy the ability to float above the layers of his artwork and immerse themselves in the intricate and wonderful world of Charles Fazzino,” said Amanda Lane of Exhibbit. “Our team spent many months refining a special room and a user interface designed to showcase single artworks. It was user tested with PHD students at the University of Auckland and several iterations were produced before we finalized our single user interface. The real challenge with Charles’ work is to provide enough space to showcase the large artworks in a gallery setting and also provide for the extreme close up viewing that his very detailed artwork demands.”
The 3D gallery showcases Charles’ work in high resolution with a navigation system that allows the viewer to zoom up really close to see the incredible detail in Charles’ multi-layered artworks.
“I am so excited about my new virtual 3D gallery! It’s so hard to show people what 3D art really is unless they see it in person. Now my fans and collectors can click on a piece of art, zoom in, zoom out, tilt and turn, and get a close-up view of my work as if they’re in a gallery instead of at their computer. It’s an amazing feat of technology, “said Charles Fazzino from his New Rochelle Studio.

About Exhibbit
Exhibbit can create an exact 3D replica of any gallery for curatorial purposes, online exhibitions and to allow the contents of stock rooms to be shared with the public. Exhibitions appear on your website, and can contain your own gallery branding. 3D gaming technology is used as a basis for this platform, but the experience is not at all like a video game. The presentation is elegant and the environments have the ambience of a real art gallery. There are three different galleries on the website to choose from and includes software for you to create and self-manage your own exhibitions. They are shared via the web, email or social media.
