If you are interested in purchasing artwork from the Open Gallery, we are able to provide a full viewing, consultation, installation and maintenance service.
A purchase of video art from the Open Gallery involves three elements.
1. The Artwork
We offer a wide range of video painting work. From single, unique video paintings, to gallery curated limited edition group collections containing several hours of material. If you are interested in the work of any of our artists, please contact us so that we can arrange a viewing for you. Please call 020 7837 3000.
2. The Laluna Technology
Laluna is the name given to the technology originally developed in 2003 by the Artscape Project which plays the video paintings in non-linear, intelligent sequences, according to criteria determined by the artists. This is achieved by storing the material at perfect quality on a computer that functions as a digital gallery, and uses a sophisticated and unique software platform to revolutionise the presentation of moving image artwork to the viewer.
3. The Display
You are able to choose between displaying work in wall mounted digital frames, or as a larger scale projected installation.
We offer a range of hand-made frames which incorporate a display screen and a compact Laluna, or Lalu. They need only be hung on the wall and connected to a power supply. The Lalu stores the artwork and plays it out as explained above. The frames are available in a variety of sizes and finishes.
We are also able to install artwork as large scale projected installations (see the Installations page for images). We can visit your location and discuss with you how we can best achieve the outcome you desire. This will involve deciding on the type of projection and the shape and appearance of the final image so that it fits well with the architecture and design of your space. We have completed projections for clients that range from one square metre to hundreds, both inside and outside.
We are able to carry out all aspects of the installation, including all technical and construction elements. Alternatively, if you prefer, we can work in conjunction with your own suppliers and contractors.
Technical Support
However you choose to display your video work, we offer ongoing technical support and maintenance services.
