DENVER, March 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — After a successful opening in San Francisco earlier this year, Enklu, the leading metaversal creation platform, is thrilled to announce the Denver launch of the first of its kind, hologram gallery and unique immersive experience. VERSE: The Art of the Future is a visionary and collaborative augmented reality holographic exhibition combining art, entertainment and technology, set to launch at Non Plus Ultra’s space above Glenarm Place at the Denver Pavilions on April 7.
At the intersection of the burgeoning metaversal landscape and familiarity of traditional art exhibitions, Verse is the visionary collaborative, providing digital artists and NFT creators a new community, platform and space to engage with art in a way accessible to all. Whether you’re a seasoned expert or jumping into this disruptive space for the first time, Verse’s NFT concierges are ready to welcome you in.
Using both Enklu Mobile AR viewer and the Microsoft HoloLens 2 headset, attendees will visualize the metaverse as the gallery and striking augmented reality art within it come to life alongside their fellow guests. Guests can expect to see the heaviest hitters in the space including pieces from Bored Ape Yacht Club, Scott Musgrove, BlockBar and more.
“Holograms are blooming in Denver this spring at Verse!” says Ray Kallmeyer, CEO of Enklu. “We couldn’t be more excited to help foster the growth of the emerging medium of augmented reality art with Denver’s unique cultural landscape. Visionary 3D artists like Colorado’s own Android Jones, who for decades have been sharing their work through 2D media, can for the first time share their work in the real world. You as the viewer can experience the art the way with depth the way it was authored, and that’s really special! Have you ever wanted a pair of angel wings? How about to visualize your aura, or even to draw your own outfit with neon chalk? Verse explores the intersection of holographic art and fashion with world renowned creators famous for pushing the limits of expression with holographic technology.”
VERSE is powered by Enklu and presented by Non Plus Ultra in association with Fever, with the aim to provide NFT creators and owners with a new community and space to engage with art in a way that is accessible to all. Denver is the second stop of the VERSE nationwide tour, with the exhibit launching in Vegas, Miami and New York City later this year. As an accessible space, VERSE will also be partnering with a “good for humanity” collective in each curation, leading with AvaTree, a dynamically growing NFT collection that sequesters carbon IRL.
Denver Pavilions, the open-air mall in downtown Denver, houses a variety of lifestyle brands and entertainment venues such as Lucky Strike and United Artist theater. Additionally, the mall offers a number of notable restaurants, including Maggiano’s Little Italy, Lime and Hard Rock Café. “The partnership between Enklu, Non Plus Ultra and Gart Properties, owners of the Denver Pavilions, is a perfect example of NPU’s adaptive reuse business model. The partnership allows for us to activate a transitional space by hosting a first of its kind holographic gallery over the next few months,” said Non Plus Ultra CEO Jordan Langer.
