EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Challenge
Dublin Contemporary 2011 was one of Ireland’s largest ever international art
exhibitions. These high-profile events are wonderful chances to make a significant
contribution to the global perception of Ireland as a prominent destination for arts
and culture. By presenting the Irish capital as a vibrant, glamorous gathering point
for worldwide artists and dealers, the Irish government hopes to raise the city’s
cultural credentials to the status of established shows like the Venice Biennale,
and thereby become a magnet for affluent overseas visitors.

The first show was the opening gambit in a 25-year strategy. The event will be
repeated every five years to become, in time, The Dublin Quinquennial. A central
part of the image of a switched-on, future-friendly event was to use advanced
communications technologies to add new dimensions of experience for art lovers, and
draw younger people into the immersive thrill of an exciting, always-on environment.
Officials anticipated 150,000 visitors over a six-week period with more than two-fifths
of them from abroad. The expected gain to the local economy was €31 million.

The organizers made art images and artists’ biographies viewable on smart phones
and tablets, including Apple and Android devices, and created a special DC11 app
with a navigation map and an accessible audio guide in place of the clunky traditional
gallery guide. Visitors could use their own devices for on-the-spot Google or YouTube
research, and could access social networking sites to spread word of the exhibition.
Visually-impaired visitors were able to use their own devices to read out text from the
custom-made app.

To bring these ideas to fruition, the show required a reliable, high-capacity wireless
network, and the organizers turned to Cisco for advice on the best ways to achieve
their innovative service aims. Cisco highly recommended systems integration
partner, RocTel, for the project.
