Directions
The first immersive multimedia art gallery in Almaty, in the «golden square», inside The Foundry IT hub building. 800 m² built on the black box principle: over a hundred projectors, interactive zones, AI installations, lasers and light — the space reacts to the viewer's movements. Right now the show-experience «Feeling the Elements» is on: a journey through water, air, earth and fire. Concept author and curator — Andrey Kot. Ticket — 5 000 ₸, discounted — 2 500 ₸. Sometimes the hall turns into a dance floor: parties with 3D mapping across three floors.
