ARTOWN Digital Art Showcase: Art on the Blockchain 2023
Jul 25, 2023
Reno, NV, United States
Reno, Nevada's FIRST Group NFT Art Show - July 25th, 2023 - Official ARTOWN Event
An educational showcase of digital art on the blockchain featuring over 185 works by 145 local, regional, national, and international artists
Digital art has been difficult for artists to sell for decades until it became possible to mint works on the blockchain, commonly known as NFTs - but not the collectibles that most people think of - real fine art, animation, performance art, or motion graphics that were never possible to sell in a gallery on a canvas.
Blockchain art has opened up a whole new medium for performance artists, generative artists, process artists, animation artists, and motion graphics designers to be able to express themselves and connect with art collectors.
Works displayed on:
- Blackdove digital canvases
- A stack of analog CRT TVs by cameron16tv
- Hologram display and Peppers Ghost by SquintDev
- VR headset
Genres represented include generative art, performance art, process art, glitch art, 3D art, motion graphics, and other kinetic works that represent the genres that have been empowered by the blockchain
