An insight on cultural institutions' approach on commissioning and collecting crypto art, with Alfredo Cramerotti (Mostyn, Infinity Art Museum), Auronda Scalera (Infinity art Museum, Multiplicity-XXNF) and Peter Hamilton (Seattle NF Museum) on the Art Stage at #NFTNYC2023

Taking as case studies IAM Infinity Art Museum (blockchain-based) and Seattle NFT Museum (venue-based), I will discuss the approach to the respective projects and how artists relevance in the cultural space at large is imprinted via these new ways of commissioning and collecting art for future generations.

Topics touched upon during the talk include the making of the Seattle NFT Museum & IAM Infinity Art Museum, recent standout artist projects, curating from different perspectives, commissioning projects in the NFT space, and questions about the art market: how should curators, gallerists, and marketplaces tackle some of the challenges in the digital space such as technical, trust, inequality and other issues?
