Culturespaces is an organization that works tirelessly to spread art and culture. They have announced that they will be opening a new digital art center, "ATELIER DES LUMIÈRES," in Paris, France, on April 13th. The art center will be equipped with over 120 video projectors and a spatial audio system, projecting digital artworks onto the floor and 10-meter-high walls. The total exhibition space, including walls and floors, is expected to be approximately 3,300 square meters, and it promises to be quite an impressive sight. Bruno Monnier, president of the cultural space, commented on this highly anticipated new facility, saying, "The role of an art center is to unify what is separate. Therefore, digital technology is extremely important for 21st-century exhibitions." The Digital Art Center will be comprised of two main areas. The central LA HALLE area will primarily host digital exhibitions, with exhibits scheduled to rotate several times a year. The first exhibition, to be held immediately after the opening, will focus heavily on the works of Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele. Visitors will be able to savor the works of these two artists, who are essential to the 19th-century Vienna Secession, on the massive walls and beneath their feet for approximately 30 minutes. The other area, LE STUDIO, will be dedicated to contemporary art, showcasing works by recent artists. There's a bar at the back of Le Studio, where you can also enjoy a meal.

Atelier des Lumieres is a new venture as an art center. It's already garnering a lot of attention, and many people are eagerly awaiting its opening.
