The National Portrait Gallery will host a special installation by Georgian-born American artist David Datuna this Presidents Day weekend that will be enhanced by wearing Google Glass. From a release:

As a part of David Datuna’s “Viewpoint of Billions” series, Portrait of America is a mixed-media 12-foot flag that is created from paint, paper and eyeglass lenses. When viewed with Google Glass, images from American culture are revealed. Images in the artwork, along with the viewer’s own voice, will trigger videos and interactive experiences that can be seen through the viewfinder of Glass. Guests will have their portraits taken wearing Glass, and the see-you see-me outcomes will be archived by the art and sent out via social media.

“I am intrigued to discover how people will interact with David Datuna’s Portrait of America,” Kim Sajet, director of the National Portrait Gallery, said in a release. “This work, paired with an innovative device such as Google Glass, explores how art and technology can create a conversation with a visitor about the influential people who made and are making America.”

Sounds amazing and terrifying at the same time, right? Portrait of America will be on view in the Great Hall on the third floor from Saturday, February 15 to Monday, February 17. See a digital collage of portraits taken while people were wearing Glass and viewing the piece at Datuna’s website.
