- Tuesday 22/10 @15.00-16.00 CET History of NFTs pt 1: Timeline, 2011 – 2019
An overview of the history of NFTs from 2011 until 2019 included, examining the timeline created on the occasion of the exhibition “Dada Perspective” at Meet. The timeline is the result of the retrospective organized for the first Historical NFT Festival that happened in Barcelona in 2022. - Tuesday 22/10 @16.00-17.00 CET: History of NFTs pt 2 – analysis of the pioneers: Rare Pepe, Cryptopunks, Dada
After examining the timeline, we dig into the three fundamental pioneers and innovation makers in the world of NFT and blockchain art, understanding that these groups of creatives have shaped not only the history of NFTs but also the history of digital art and culture. - Wednesday 23/10 @16.00-17.00 CET 2021, How everything changed: Beeple
In February 2021, the work “Everydays, the First 5000 Days” was sold for $69.000.000 at Christie’s. The work is an NFT. From that moment, everything changes. We won’t only analyze this story but Beeple as an artist.
- Tuesday 29/10 @16.00-17.00 CET: NFTs and art institutions, NFT collections in museums, and how platforms become galleries
After the boom of NFTs, the art world takes a step back, but then it comes back creating permanent collections in big museums. The world of NFTs also takes a step back, and the platforms have started acting more like galleries. We examine this wave of love and hate, as well as the acceptance and refusal of one of the most exciting phenomena of the art world in the last decade. - Wednesday 30/10 @16.00 – 17.00: CET: Blockchain as a medium
Too many are concentrated on NFTs, forgetting that what they really are is just a certificate. What is valuable and exciting at the core of these works of digital art is blockchain technology. In this last session, we won’t analyze the artworks that use the blockchain to be authenticated and commercialized, but the artists who have been using this technology as a tool to create some of the most innovative and contemporary artworks of today, like Primavera De Filippi, Rhea Meyers, Sarah Friend, Operator etc.
All times are CET.
