Rudi Wach
art and digital

We had the great honour to work for the well-known Tyrolean artist Rudi Wach. On the occasion of an exhibition at the Belevedere garden in Vienna, we scanned some of Rudi's sculptures, creating interactive 3D models. We participated in creating a website for the artist, too.

The new website rudi-wach.com is a showcase for Rudi Wach's late work. Drawings as well as sculptures are part of the extensive ouvre. To give the recipient an extra perspective, some of the sculptures are embedded as 3D models. One model was even animated, brought to life by the movements of a professional dancer : the dancing minotaur. As an installation, the dancing minotaur was part of the exhibition.

CONCEPT

On the occasion of an exhibition of his latest work, we had the honour to create a concept for the website of well-known Austrian artist Rudi Wach.

The idea was to create a site with little colour and clear lines that puts full focus on the artist's work.

DESIGN PHASE

To add the extra little something, we scanned some originals. The sculptures were then embedded as 3D models on the artist's website. Using a turntable viewer, the figures become interactive.

The possibility to navigate around a sculpture is a feature the classic image cannot compete with.

CONTENT CREATION

Besides conceptualising the website for Rudi Wach, we had one more mission: bringing one of his sculptures to life. An Argentinian dancer visited our studio. We captured his movements with a motion capture suit and then mapped them on one of the sculptures with the suitable title 'dancing minotaur'.

Rudi was quite glad when he saw his sculpture move for the first time to spheric sound. It then became part of his exhibition at the belvedere garden.

MAKING-OF

For this project, we worked closely together with Manfred Corrine, curator of the exhibition at the Belvedere garden. The artist himself, Rudi Wach, came to our studio several times, too. Though he works analogue, he was fascinated by the digital means we provided for his work.

If you want to take a closer look, we can only advise you to visit the website and have a look at the great oeuvre, now available online ;)
