Beanie x Farokh Ceasefire
This POAP was created by FVCKRENDER to commemorate to "ceasefire" between Beanie and Farokh, after the Great Twitter Feud of 2021. The artwork is meant to represent unity in a small space where we should all be building together rather than fighting one another. The message is clear and simple, you don't have to align with everyone, but you don't need to bring one another down, to build and to win.
NFTism: No Fear in Trying
2021-09-14
This POAP token can be claimed by anyone who has attended the NFTism: No Fear in Trying Exhibition live in Arium. Institut, the premier art-world platform for NFTs, is proud to present NFTism: No Fear in Trying, a historic NFT group exhibition curated by Kenny Schachter. This inaugural showcase commemorates the launch of Institut, a new NFT platform built on the Ethereum blockchain, designed to empower artists working in digital media, and to spearhead a bold new digital art renaissance. Driven by the growing digital economy and fuelled by a global generational shift, the art market is changing faster than ever before, and NFTism: No Fear in Trying demonstrates the ability of NFTs to unlock untapped potential in how we perceive, interact with, and collect digital art. In this exhibition, curator, artist, writer and collector Kenny Schachter brings together a diverse group of artists who work in analogue, phygital and digital media, presenting their work side-by-side in the physical gallery space, and simultaneously in a custom-built virtual exhibition space powered by Arium’s groundbreaking metaverse technology. This ‘multiverse’ exhibition experience is reflective of Institut’s core belief of marrying the traditional physical, and progressive, digital environments. The exhibition features close to 100 international artists, from those minting their very first NFT, like Jeremy Olson and Caio Twombly, to veteran Crypto Artists such as Rewind Collective, Olive Allen, and IX Shells. In grouping these artists together, NFTism demonstrates the startling accessibility of the NFT art market, and the vast diversity of intersectional concepts and aesthetics that currently define NFT and Crypto art. Inside the gallery, visitors are able to view multi-sensory NFT artworks via digital screens and projections, and engage with specific works using interactive VR headsets. At the same time, individuals from across the world can experience the exhibition virtually via Arium’s 3D video-chat metaverse - where they are able to come together to explore the custom-built galleries and interact with artists, collectors, and art lovers from the global community, like never before. By providing borderless access in this way, NFTism presents a truly immersive, inclusive, community-centric experience for art enthusiasts worldwide. During the course of the exhibition, each artist’s work will be available for sale by auction on the Institut platform, where collectors can freely bid using either regular FIAT or cryptocurrency. Collectors are subsequently able to re-sell their works in a dynamic NFT marketplace in which the artist automatically receives a royalty ad infinitum every time their work is re-sold, creating a transparent and equitable system for artists and collectors and a viable cause for change in the art world. "It’s a human defense mechanism to reject the unfamiliar without giving it a chance; change is hard to stomach, something that unsettles the status quo. Human nature pushes back at first blush rather than learn about and accept something new for what it is—a potential advance and step forward. NFTs are just such a transformative phenomenon, a potential revolution in the history of art and its dissemination into the collective stream of consciousness, and commerce! This show will attempt to do what no one has done before! FOCUS ON THE ART, art from a wide, diverse universe of talent from all walks of life." - Kenny Schachter, curator of NFTism: No Fear in Trying
