Keys to Rome is a unique international exhibition on Roman culture that will launch simultaneously in Rome, Sarajevo, Amsterdam and Alexandria on September 23, 2014.

 

The exhibition uses immersive technology to present and connect these regional cultures within the Roman Empire, highlighting their diversity and commonality over centuries of Roman rule.

 

Keys To Rome is an exhibition like no other. Combining real artefacts, restored 3D objects and beautiful virtual environments, visitors can travel back in time to search for lost objects and discover more about the lives of their owners.

 

Blending interactive and immersive technologies with powerful storytelling and a unique collection of artefacts, Keys To Rome will captivate and inspire visitors in four incredible locations: Rome at the Imperial Fora Museum, Alexandria at the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, Amsterdam at the Allard Pierson Museum and Sarajevo at the newly restored City Hall.

 

Keys to Rome is organised by the Virtual Museum Transnational Network and curated by archaeologists, art historians, architects, computer scientists and communication experts. In each of the locations, it will be complemented by a Digital Heritage Expo that brings innovative technologies for cultural heritage and a range of outstanding workshops and seminars on the topic.

 

In the months to come, this website will bring you not only all information on this exceptional range of events but also an online sample of the interactive content of each exhibition.
