The opening of the new exhibition Twentysomethings: Works and NFts from the Fabio Sandoval Collection is announced by the Orlando Museum of Art. The exhibition features a variety of mediums, including digital NFT works.
According to a press statement, the works are “primarily figurative and span a variety of mediums: oil on canvas, spray paint on steel, cement, fabric, wood, found objects and digital NFT works.”
The collection of Fabio Sandoval, a 25-year-old local collector who has been collecting for the past six years, is on display. The artists in the collection come from many different cultures, and the collection includes works by many rising stars in the NFT community, like Micah Johnson, who used to play baseball but is now an NFT artist.
NFT artist Mike “Beeple” Winkelman said, NFT has become “the canvas of a living, breathing document that changes over time”.
“As museum curators, it is our responsibility to be aware of new developments in the art world, including what is happening in the metaverse.” OMA curator Coralie Claeysen-Gleyzon said, “NFTs have enabled digital artists to market their work to collectors internationally without the help of so-called ‘gatekeepers’ of the art world, namely museum curators and gallerists. This unfettered relationship between creator and consumer of art is fascinating, as well as the fact that NFTs provide ironclad provenance, a deed of ownership, and provable scarcity to digital artwork.”
The Twentysomethings exhibition will be on display from Saturday, January 27, to Sunday, May 7.
