Perceiving Cultural Heritage

In the Mirror of the Wonder of Luca Giordano. Image of an exhibition designed by Perla Gianni in 2008 at Palazzo Medici Riccardi, Florence, Italy. Its design was oriented to the Users Experience (UX), aiming at placing the visitor "inside" the work of art. The support of digital technologies was conceived for amplifying the possibilities of contact between the viewer and the artwork, rather than replacing it.

Abstract


Over the years, we have undertaken research projects in the field of cultural heritage perception, trying to analyze the response of the human cognitive system when immersed in Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality or other multimedia supports. Our goal has been to study how to improve design exhibition, utilizing these technologies in museums and cultural heritage sites and to study alternative ways to promote human development through deeper contact with art.
