NFT – A Revolution in the World of Tradition and Technology
Saturday, October 7, 2023, 18:30
A Day of Emotions and Discoveries
Another thrilling day at the fair has come to a close. Despite our physical exhaustion, our emotional energy is at its peak! Starting at 11:00 AM, we kick off another round of discussions with gallery representatives and artists.
The Timeless Institution of Art
When we speak of the traditional world of art, we envision an institution anchored in centuries of tradition – steadfast and unyielding. Yet today, we witness how modernity not only “knocks” but vehemently “bashes” on the doors of this timeless institution. And surprisingly, it often meets indifference or resistance.
The Divide between Tradition and Modernity
When we broach the topic of NFTs and innovation in art, we frequently hear, “This isn’t for us.” But why? Is it that technology doesn’t understand art, or perhaps art doesn’t understand technology? Are we speaking different languages? Isn’t art supposed to be an open door? Yet, it seems it’s not.
The Beacon of Hope Modern Artists
Fortunately, we also meet artists open to innovation, ready to cross the boundaries of tradition. Such individuals fill us with optimism and hope for the future.
We don’t stop; we don’t pay heed to obstacles. We move forward, confident that our direction is beneficial for the evolution of art. Now, we only wait for the rest of the world to grasp this and join us. The artistic aura of these places is tinged with curiosity but also a certain skepticism towards novelty.
Bridging Two Worlds The Role of Technology in Art
It’s undeniable that the technological breakthrough – blockchain and NFTs – affects every facet of our lives. In art, a realm considered for centuries as an unchanged bastion of tradition, introducing modernity seems exceptionally challenging. It’s a clash of two worlds, one honoring traditions and another pushing towards the future.
The Evolution Artists and Curators Adapting
Observing artists and curators, we notice a pattern. Those embracing technology don’t lose their traditional art approach but expand its horizons. They use technology as a tool for exploration, discovery, and conveying their visions in fresh ways.
The Need for Education A New Era of Artistry
Throughout our fair discussions, we perceived a demand for tech education within the art context. Many traditional artists seem lost facing new tools and possibilities. Herein lies our mission – to build bridges between the old and new eras, aiding in comprehension and adaptation.
Fair Highlights A Blend of Old and New
So, with full optimism, we step into the afternoon segment of the fair, geared up for more discussions, experience exchanges, and foremost, promoting the NFT idea that modernity and tradition can coexist, crafting something truly unique.
The day at the fair brought a gamut of emotions – euphoria from fruitful discussions, hope for new opportunities, and a hint of regret that this festival of art innovation and tradition is so fleeting.
Our Commitment to the Art World
In this context, our mission became even more paramount. We discovered many artists eager to delve into new technologies. The challenge is their lack of access to the right knowledge and understanding of its integration into their creative process.
Looking Ahead Bridging Gaps and Building Futures
As the day concluded, we felt profound gratitude. It was a day packed with inspiration, learning, and the merging of two seemingly distant worlds. One thing’s for sure – whether you’re a traditionalist, innovator, or somewhere in between, hubs for art enthusiasts like Fair For Art in Vienna, and platforms like uni.Decentral-Art will always welcome you.
