New York, NY, March 21, 2020 --(PR.com)-- Oil painter, Dave Alber recently launched his VR Paintings app, a virtual reality gallery app showcasing his Hybrid VR Paintings™.
Hybrid VR Paintings™ are physical/virtual hybrid paintings that occupy physical space on your wall while simultaneously manifesting within the virtual world.
These paintings have no edges in the virtual world. They are 360°. Entering these virtual reality paintings you can:
Move 360° in panoramic VR space,
Zoom out to enjoy the big picture, and
Zoom in to focus on the details.
An art lover can hang a Hybrid VR Painting™ on their wall and through a monitor, cellphone, Smart TV, or VR headset allow guests to enter the Hybrid VR Painting™ in an immersive VR experience.
The Floating Gallery™ is a VR art gallery that users enter to tour VR art exhibitions and enter VR art.
In The Floating Gallery™ art lovers explore an enhanced experience of Hybrid VR Paintings™. They can explore:
room after room of paintings,
buttons to interact with the gallery content, and
integration with web-based resources.
The VR Paintings app is a cellular and VR headset compatible VR gallery for viewing VR art. As a cellphone app, viewers can view paintings as either full-screen or immersive stereoscopic experiences. With VR Paintings, art lovers can enter colorful and thick impasto oil paintings and experience them as fully immersive 360° virtual reality experiences. Within the app, travelers journey through The Floating Gallery™, a 360° oil painted gallery, where they can explore room after room of fine art collections. Interactive buttons allow users to move amongst galleries; to enter paintings as 360° environments; to view flat art; and to get more information about the art.
Oil painter and app developer, Dave Alber says, “Hybrid VR Paintings™ connect the long continuity of the oil painting tradition with the immediacy of 21st century technology. Not everyone sees the value of art, but friends of the art tradition will certainly want to explore this new marriage of physical art and VR technology.”

They link the physical world, virtual world, and the continuity of our cultural tradition together in a singular fever of paradox.”
