Ideum digitizes the 'Gustave Baumann' exhibition: the artist's environment

Located in the New Mexico Museum of Art, This exhibition recreates the animated environment of puppets and woodcuts by this artist, con pantallas digitales personalizadas por The same thing, 3D puppet animations and audio, all synchronized into a unified narrative.

In collaboration with the designers and exhibition organizers of the New Mexico Museum of Art, the AV specialist The same thing has created a digital environment and animated for the sample Gustave Baumann: the artist's environment, that explores this master printmaker's connection to the land and people since his arrival in Santa Fe, offering a theatrical introduction to the artist's work.

Known for his woodcuts, Gustave Baumann left a huge artistic legacy, which also includes paint, sculpture, drawing, puppets and furniture, becoming an important cultural figure of New Mexico, to whom tribute is now paid in this thematic digital exhibition around his work.

Along the entrance hall, three custom digital screens by Ideum, each designed as a miniature proscenium, they reproduce sequential animated scenes that lead visitors to the main gallery, with Baumann's puppet creations.

3D experts from Ideum have meticulously recreated each puppet in digital format, drawing inspiration from the artist's original puppets and archival recordings of his performances. The animation pays tribute to subtle timing, the humor and expressiveness of the movements characteristic of Baumann's shows.

Each animated vignette develops in a synchronized coordination, con script and audio contributed by the museum, for visitors to tour the exhibition with a single, continuous narrative. ‍The physical design of the facility complements its content: Sculpted frames evoke the architecture of a classic puppet theater, with its draped curtains and warm wood tones, that integrate with the aesthetics of the exhibition.

behind the scenes, the Ideum team has integrated playback hardware custom and synchronization software to ensure fluid transitions and a unified narrative in the three rooms that make up the exhibition.
