Vatican is “Aping In”, Creating a Metaverse Gallery

Vatican is "Aping In"

In partnership with the Metaverse company Sensorium, the Vatican Museum of Art is aping into the Metaverse to bring its priceless paintings, sculptures, and frescoes to Web3 to extend the Vatican’s legacy to people who may not be able to experience it.

Of all the famous museums, it is one of the most visited art museums globally, with over 6 million tourists a year. It was founded in the 16th century, and it houses priceless pieces of art history ranging from Renaissance and Classicism to Post-Impressionism and Surrealism.

Its collection includes almost 800 works by 250 international artists, including Raphael, Marc Chagall, Salvador Dal, Paul Gauguin, Michelangelo, Vincent van Gogh, and others.

The partnership between Sensorium and the Vatican-backed non-profit Humanity 2.0 Foundation, led by Vatican Father Philip Larrey, aims to develop an NFT gallery that will showcase the masterpieces of the Vatican collection.

Its exhibits will be part of the Sensorium Galaxy metaverse that will allow users to visit these collections via immersive augmented reality devices, desktop or mobile applications that will enable users to watch live broadcasts and create non-player characters to play with and interact with them.

Father Philip Larrey, Humanity 2.0 Chair, spoke about the partnership and said: “We look forward to working with Sensorium to explore ways to democratize art, making it more widely available to people around the world regardless of their socio-economic and geographical limitations. The partnership with Sensorium brings this goal a step further and equips us with the latest tech solutions.”

The Sensorium Galaxy is currently in beta and is set to launch later this year. Additionally, this partnership official makes Sensorium the first metaverse developer to participate in NGO’s NFT.

As of now, the Sensorium Galaxy is in beta and is slated to launch later this year. Additionally, the partnership makes Sensorium the first Metaverse developer to participate in NGOs NFT.

However, this isn’t the first of its kind; four major Italian museums including the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, recently used utilized NFT to sell digital editions of priceless masterpieces from their collections.
