The Widget Art Gallery (The WAG) is a mini 3-dimensional, single art-gallery room that fits into your pocket.
The virtual gallery-room, every month, directly on your mobile, hosts a solo digital art exhibition related to the dynamic site-specific context. So, The WAG works both as a sort of ‘kunsthall’ showing temporary exhibitions and as a permanent collection museum because it conserves all the past exhibitions inside an online archive.
The WAG is often a strange experience — a place where we are meant to have a private interaction with the artwork but could also be surrounded by crowds. It was born with the intent to bypass the art system. So the WAG let the time-based art arrive more easily and widely to the public, by eliminating the so-called intermediaries.
The WAG aims to promote digital artists all over the world.
