TL;DR
Edward Zipco has a plan to increase his bodily NFT galleries to 50 places around the globe.
Bodily NFT galleries ain’t new – however the concept of making a a world community of unified galleries is.
This manner, exhibitions might seamlessly journey between nations within the blink of an eye fixed at zero value, altering location month-to-month/weekly/day by day.
Full Story
It is a hell of an idea from a person with a hell of a final title.
Edward Zipco (eh?) desires to do to artwork exhibitions what Jezabella Davies* (creator of the digital billboard) did for the billboard business.
*that is a lie, we could not discover who created the digital billboard, so we simply made up a reputation.
In any case, Eddie Z has a plan to increase his bodily NFT galleries to 50 places around the globe.
Bodily NFT galleries ain’t new – however the concept of making a a world community of unified galleries is.
This manner, exhibitions can seamlessly journey between nations within the blink of an eye fixed. That means, Zipco’s ‘Superchief Galleries’ might rotate an exhibition’s location month-to-month/weekly – hell, even day by day if the demand was there.
This is why we love this idea:
On-line experiences do not hit the identical as in-person experiences – this bridges that divide for NFT artists and their audiences.
Context goes a great distance within the artwork world! Bear in mind again in 2019 when a banana was duct-taped to a wall and offered for $120k? (Was it ridiculous? AB.SO.LUTELY. However that is not the purpose we’re attempting to make). What we’re getting at is: it was seen as a authentic murals as a result of it was taped to a gallery wall. Adore it or hate it, the context legitimized it! Hopefully a world community of NFT galleries can do one thing comparable for digital works.
Lastly, do you know that artwork transport/storage is a ~$20B p/y international business?? …these prices go to (close to) zero as soon as digital shows come into play.
So, godspeed, Eddie.
Godspeed.
