Collaboration is at the heart of the Virtual Realms exhibition, with six new collaborative partnerships being formed between leading game designers and renowned media artists.
Co-curated by Patrick Moran, Acting Head of the Barbican, London and the celebrated video game designer Tetsuya Mizuguchi (also the founder of Enhance), Virtual Realms transforms the concepts and creativity of videogames into six experiential realms, with each section holding a single installation by each video game developer/media designer team.
Join us to hear from Testsuya Mitzuguchi and Patrick Moran in discussion on the curatorial design which lead to the exhibition's creation.
