We’re introducing the newest version of THE DOG!

THE DOG can now stay home with you if you prepare a kennel for it. We suggest using the template available here. Print it (or redraw from the monitor), glue and color how you want. Then put your smartphone inside with THE DOG opened in a browser.

Have fun!

Previous incarnations of the installation:

THE DOG was created in 1994, during the special edition of the WRO Biennale in Duże Studio of the National Television – it barked at the audience passing by, meeting kind and cheerful reactions.

Next, THE DOG became a part of the Interactive Playground, a well known art exhibition aimed at the youngest and adults alike, organized by the WRO Art Center. THE DOG lived in a wooden kennel and greeted the audience with its barking in over 20 cities in Poland and abroad.

2015 WRO Biennale brings its next version. It was a miniature of the installation that you could assemble yourself. It consisted of an application for mobile devices and the dog kennel template. The app has been available since 13.05.2015 – the opening day of the 2015 WRO Biennale, as a part of the Little WRO program.
