A new era of creation is opening up for architects, artists as well as designers, sound designers, dj’s, graphic artists, et al. This exhibition is now displayed in the Web3D on-line community, on the famous Canal+ virtual world (http://virtuel.cplus.fr).This project won the Golden Lasso Award in the art category of the last Web3D RoundUP, held during the Web3D 2000 conference in Monterey, CA, and has been made possible thanks to the work produced by more than 30 artists. The Web3D artists in this electronic art exhibit include Andy Best of MEET Factory, Cristiano Bianchi, Jacques Perconte, Maurice Clifford, Patrick Keller, Christian Babski, Steve Guynup, Victoria Vesna and Craig Brown…
