From 18 May to 31 July 2022 Palazzo Strozzi Foundation presents Let's Get Digital! , a new exhibition project that brings the NFT art revolution and the new frontiers between real and digital to the spaces of the Strozzina and the courtyard of Palazzo Strozzi through the works of international artists such as Refik Anadol, Anyma, Daniel Arsham, Beeple, Krista Kim and Andrés Reisinger .
Promoted and organized by the Palazzo Strozzi Foundation and the Hillary Merkus Recordati Foundation and curated by Arturo Galansino (General Director, Palazzo Strozzi Foundation, Florence) and Serena Tabacchi (MoCDA Director, Museum of Contemporary Digital Art), the exhibition presents a journey through digital installations and multimedia experiences created by artists who express the new and multifaceted researches of Crypto Art , based on the success of NFTs , digital certificates of authenticity that are redefining the concepts of uniqueness and value of a work of art. Let's Get Digital! offers a look at a movement in full evolution and transformation, which for many is only the starting point for an increasingly accelerated mix of aesthetics and new technologies, a revolution for the whole world of art, digital and beyond.
In addition to art, fashion, music, sport and the world of gaming also create new NFTs every day, opening up new dimensions of interaction between real and digital. Acronym for Non-Fungible Token, “non-fungible / reproducible token”, an NFT is a video, image or any digital content that is certified (or in jargon “minted”, coined) through the blockchain. Literally a "chain of blocks", this technology makes files encrypted, uneditable and recorded in an archive which guarantees a file to be viewed by everyone but owned only by a single individual or, better said, by a single wallet, a identifying address but anonymous. In this new digital world based at the market level on cryptocurrencies, NFTs populate the so-called metaverses, virtual parallel worlds whose borders extend to the tangible and conventional world but with new paradigms of social interaction. By giving value to digital works that by their nature can be easily duplicated, this new way of creating, enjoying and collecting art has fueled an alternative and independent market from the traditional one, but above all it has allowed the development of unprecedented paths and possibilities for the production of artists and for the enjoyment of the public, in a new idea of interconnection on a global level.
