De Chirico Beyond Walls – VR Prototype for Art

An immersive VR experience: Galleria Barattolo dissolves into impossible landscapes. A pre-alpha prototype showcasing the future of art exhibitions.

On the occasion of Rome Art Week, Galleria Barattolo presents an experimental virtual reality project: De Chirico Beyond Walls.
A pre-alpha prototype inviting the audience to imagine how every exhibition space can find its digital extension—accessible, immersive, and transformative.

Inside the VR headset, the real gallery transforms: walls vanish, and the viewer is guided into an impossible landscape, suspended between metaphysical atmospheres and painterly visions.
This is not a videogame nor a simple virtual environment, but a new frontier for art: a tool that museums, foundations, galleries, and artists can use to expand their boundaries, engage new audiences, and propose unprecedented experiences.

This prototype is only a beginning: the demonstration that VR technology can become a contemporary exhibition language, a way to take art beyond its very walls.
