PINTA MIAMI LAUNCHES METAVERSE EXHIBITION OF TWO MAJOR ART COLLECTIONS
The first metaverse exhibition by a significant art fair will be taking place in Pinta Miami 2022, featuring works from the Ella Fontanals-Cisneros collection and the Museum District of Decentraland.
Three leaders across the art world and web3 are partnering during Miami Art Week to present the first ever metaverse exhibition by a major art fair. Pinta Miami, the Museum District of Decentraland, and eDigital.ART, responsible for presenting a new digital collectible initiative from the Ella Fontanals-Cisneros Collection, have created a groundbreaking exhibition, which celebrates Latin American artists and crosses physical and virtual worlds.
The exhibition features digital works corresponding to physical pieces of artists in the Ella Fontanals-Cisneros Collection–among the most significant private collections of Latin American art globally– and available to collect digitally.
The exhibition features digital artworks, available to purchase as digital collectibles, by Glenda León, Gustavo Pérez Monzón and Sandú Darié, which are inspired by works in the Ella Fontanals-Cisneros Collection. The exhibition opens November 30th and will remain on view in Decentraland.
“Participating in this new virtual exhibition blockchain-based space is a natural step for Pinta, who has been responding over the last several years to the advancing currents of contemporary art, culture, and technology, in order to engage new audiences”, explains Diego Costa Peuser, Pinta´s Global Director.
