Exhibitions in augmented space
We believe the augmented space should be accessible to all. With our growing non-profit platform, we are lowering the entrance bar for viewers and exhibitors. From large-scale art institutions to more intimate projects, WAVA can help you realise your next AR exhibition anywhere around the world.
WAVA Symposium "ARtificial Realities"
As part of the opening day program of DEMO-, the symposium ARtificial Realities was held in Frankfurt and Düsseldorf –– a collaboration between WAVA and the NRW-Forum.

“All works are […] accessible to view via the WAVA app, which ties into users’ geolocation but does not extract any data, returning a sense of freedom taken by other location tracking apps.”

“Rather than soliciting artworks that can be placed anywhere, WAVA proposes that exhibitions remain site-specific and viewers move to the location of artworks, locating them through the app.”

“Wava shows how exciting and productive this [augmented] space can be, above all because it can be experienced publicly and collectively.”

“The AR installations in Frankfurt expand our perception of public space and reality in general”

“The development team behind the Wava app wants to use the software to offer a permanent infrastructure for artists, curators and institutions.”

“Ben [Livne Weitzman] and I exchanged views on what might fit. I was particularly interested in getting something into public spaces, because it’s so often fraught and difficult to show there”

“While on the Frankfurt square, I can see the flickering screens that make up Tony Coke's Coke's SM BNGRZ on my mobile phone camera's screen, while the tourists see the city's newly reconstructed historical facades of the city, perhaps almost as simulated, on theirs.”

“If you want to escape the crowds in the stores and between the little stalls for a moment and if you have downloaded the free augmented reality app WAVA, you can listen to a wonderful concert in the form of a hymn dedicated to the colorful national flags by the Frankfurt duo Les Trucs.”
Prof. Dr. Verena Kuni
“Hundreds, even thousands of monuments are spread across the entire city of Frankfurt. And yet you have certainly never seen these here before: Detached from their pedestals, a few centimetres above them, the bronze and gold busts of Phillip Saviano, Marlene Garcia-Esperat, Li Wenliang, Kimberly Young-McLear and Aaron Swartz float in the air.”

“All works in DEMO- gather and share (historical) information, and by doing so pose an inward view for reflection of one’s own stance on culture (including but not limited to politics, policy, art, and media), not only regarding these works but in our own personal and communal contexts as well.”
Lara Schoorl

“Walking by the Chinese Consulate in Frankfurt, most passersby would miss the floating bust of Li Wenliang. Accessed through the WAVA app, four other site-specific monuments augment different locations across Frankfurt. The exhibition DEMO-offers an invigorating way to reimagine public space artistic interventions in our virtually interconnected era.”
