The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts needed a solution to project Chagall’s work of art on the Opera of Paris ceiling as part of the exhibit Chagall: color and music. After considering ambient light, the nature of the content being projected and knowing that projection was to be done on both sides of the surface, the choice was made to use our translucent off-white Studioview screen. This surface combines the characteristics required for both front and rear projection. The project also required a circular Domino frame to recreate the shape of the ceiling.
