Visionairs, the French pioneers of ArtTech, are set to unveil their first permanent exhibition space in Asia at Hong Kong’s West Kowloon Cultural District (WestK) this December 2024.

Renowned for their innovative fusion of art, culture, history, and cutting-edge technology, Visionairs promises an immersive digital adventure, unlike anything Hong Kong has seen before.

Using state-of-the-art tools like augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and artificial intelligence (AI), Visionairs will transform traditional storytelling into an interactive journey. Their upcoming exhibitions offer a high-definition exploration of reconstructed historical scenes, transporting visitors to different times and places with stunning accuracy.

Visionairs’ first showcase at WestK, Notre-Dame de Paris: The Augmented Exhibition, will run from Dec. 8, 2024 to March 7, 2025, coinciding with the historic cathedral’s grand reopening in Paris.

Created by Histovery in collaboration with Rebuilding Notre-Dame de Paris and L’Oréal Groupe, the exhibition uses AR technology to bring the cathedral’s rich history to life, and has toured worldwide from Paris to Dubai, and Berlin to Shanghaibefore its arrival in Hong Kong.

Visitors can glimpse into 20 time portals, exploring the grandeur of Notre-Dame throughout the centuries. From walking its halls to standing atop its iconic roof, attendees will experience stories told by its original builders and uncover the secrets of the legendary cathedral.
