Taiwan: New Avatar Exhibition Opens in Taipei

Based on James Cameron’s popular “Avatar” movie, the new “AVATAR: Discover Pandora” exhibition opened last week at its first stop at Taiwan’s Xinyi Theatre in Taipei, where visitors can immerse into the foreign world of Pandora during the next three months. The American full service provider for live events – Global Experience Specialists (GES) – created the concept in cooperation with Lightstorm Entertainment, Twentieth Century Fox Location Based Entertainment and Beast Kingdom Co.

“The premiere of the exhibition marks the culmination of more than two years of work to bring James Cameron’s vision of Pandora to audiences around the world and we are thrilled to make Taiwan the first stop of the exhibition’s five-year global tour,” said Eddie Newquist, Chief Creative Officer and EVP at GES. The exhibition immerses Avatar fans into the world of the fantasy planet and its indigenous “Na’vi” inhabitants. Visitors can try out more than twelve interactive elements – incidentally they learn something about their own living environment on earth. Where the planet of “Pandora” can be seen next has not been revealed yet. (eap)
