.cozomomedici is donating 22 digital artworks from his collection to the lacma, following a trend of NFTs making their way into traditional art spaces. camgthompson reports
Comprised of 22 works by 13 artists, de’ Medici’s donation features one CryptoPunk from NFT collective Larva Labs, a piece from generative artist Dmitri Cherniak’s Ringers collection and art from artificial intelligence artist Claire Silver.that he hopes the donation will emphasize the significance of digital art as pieces sit next to works of legendary artists such as Pablo Picasso, Georgia O’Keefe and Andy Warhol.
“With this gift, my goal was to help bridge the worlds of on-chain art and contemporary art, which until now have separately existed,” said de’ Medici in a press release. “I’m thrilled to have these historically significant on-chain works contextualized beside many iconic works of art in LACMA’s collection.”
Michael Govan, LACMA CEO and Wallis Annenberg foundation director, said he’s enthusiastic about how the donation will carry forward the museum’s emphasis on the intersection of art and technology. “We’re grateful to Cozomo de’ Medici for his forward-thinking generosity that will expand the diversity of our art collection and propel us to develop new standards and techniques for preserving works created on the blockchain,” Govan said in a press release.
In recent weeks, NFTs have been moving away from their digital-native domains and into major physical art institutions.
