LG Electronics (LG) has tied up with the US-based Blackdove to deliver seamless digital art experiences on LG’s advanced digital signage displays. LG’s customizable display solution will provide a convenient way to showcase digital art, by integrating software and curated art from Blackdove’s digital art gallery and NFT (non-fungible token) platform. Selected by Blackdove’s curatorial team, the selection of artworks by contemporary artists such as Jonathan McCabe, Kenneth Wayne, Meghan Cheng, Franck Lefebvre and Jamie Scott encompasses a broad range of subjects and styles for both new and experienced fans of digital art.
LG LED signage offers scalable designs and premium picture quality with resolutions from Full HD (1,920 x 1,080) to 8K (7,680 x 4,320). On the other hand, Blackdove curation software can be bundled with LG LED signage products including LG MAGNIT, LG LED Bloc, LED All-in-One and fine-pitch LED signage to deliver the gallery’s vast library of digital art assets.
Announcing the collaboration with Blackdove, Paik Ki-mun, Senior Vice President and Head of the Information Display Business Unit of LG Business Solutions Company, said: “This partnership allows us to engage our LED signage customers. The option to transform LG LED signage into digital canvases in spaces such as luxury residential, corporate lobbies, hospitals and retail stores is something we think the public will have a very positive reaction to.”
In the words of Marc Billings, CEO of Blackdove: “Digital art is the first form of art in history that can be experienced natively by the whole world in an instant, giving it universal appeal. This makes possible an exponential increase in both the amount and diversity of art, as well as a path to universal access to affordable art enjoyment and ownership.”
