This will be the first time an art fair offers a metaverse gaming experience, in which visitors can interact with Sandbox characters inspired by centuries-old antiques and appreciate up close the physical counterparts of antiques presented in the fair. Fine Art Asia is sponsored by LG Electronics this year, which will provide OLED (organic light-emitting diodes) television and display screens in the fair area. This adventure game will debut during the fair and be released to the public afterwards.
