Survey of Western Art | University of Miami Virtual Experiences Simulation Lab

Collaborators: Joao Eduardo Ribeiro

The Survey of Western Art VR Course is an innovative educational experience designed for art history students at the University of Miami. Students can spend time each week in a virtual gallery that showcases scaled models, 3D models of artifacts, and artworks from historic architectural wonders as part of Professor Karen Mathews' course. Students then explore these monuments in full scale within the VR environment, including the Colosseum, the Acropolis, and the Pyramids of Giza. This blend of virtual tours and in-person discussions provides a comprehensive and engaging learning experience.
