Masterpiece : Nighthawks

“Masterpiece: Beyond the Painted Surface” places British art historian, BBC presenter and BAFTA nominated broadcaster, Dr James Fox inside the virtual 3D representation of Edward Hopper’s Nighthawks - his famous 1942 oil on canvas painting that portrays four people in a downtown diner late at night as viewed through the diner’s window. The production and engineering team from Bild Studios worked closely with Dr James Fox and the creative team at The Experience Machine (TEM) to re-imagine how a painting could exist as a three-dimensional world which allowed us to reveal insights into the painting that have never been considered before.
