Light Up Irish Artist
Christie®, a leader in creating
and delivering the world’s best
visual and audio experiences,
is captivating visitors with spectacular
projections of Irish artist John Gerrard’s
digital art pieces at the Ullens Center
for Contemporary Art (UCCA).
All art pieces, displayed on huge
canvasses in the museum, have been
brought to life by five Christie projectors
supplied by Christie China, which is the
exhibition’s video equipment sponsor.
Three Christie DWU555-GS 1DLP®
projectors are used for "Exercise",
while Christie Roadster HD14K-J, and
Christie WU14K-M 3DLP® projectors
are used respectively for recreating the
splendor of "Solar Reserve" and "Farm".

“I had previously used Christie
projectors for Pulp Press, a permanent
installation in Norway. It was the
best image and performance of any
projector I have worked with,” said
Gerrard. “The colors, image quality
and smoothness of the visuals are
unprecedented. They are the best
projectors for art.”
For this exhibition in Beijing, both
Gerrard and UCCA unanimously agreed
that the best way for these works to be
showcased is via projection technology,
and his vision was to achieve three
key points for the digital projections:
sharpness, brightness and contrast
of color. These objectives were fully
accomplished by the five projectors
used at the museum.
