For the first time sold at a major traditional art auction house.
“Bridge to Metaverse,” one of the events hosted by Snark.art, showcased tokenized works of established and emerging contemporary artists. This joint exhibition of works brings famous artists of our time, including Kabakovs, Kendell Geers, AES+F, Recycle Group, etc., to the blockchain field. A bridge for blockchain, while the blockchain-based art world has its own distribution system.
One criticism of the crypto art market is that it is perceived as immature. Despite the focus on memes and CryptoKitties, there are some serious artists who have made their presence felt in the crypto world.The traditional artistic stance is a commentary on the current state of affairs. This kind of commentary is a way of subverting criticism while also amplifying the fact that we have experienced it.
In our new environment where we are tracked by everyday tools, this is a perfect match with the anonymity that blockchain technology brings.

Will traditional artists bringing their work into the shared blockchain realm affect emerging artists in the new realm of crypto art? With issues of politics, race, gender and inequality gaining traction, the influx of emerging artists in our current era could change the way art is made, collected and viewed.
The traditional art market brings not only artists, but also gallerists and curators, who are naturally attracted by the growing market. In fact, with the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles buying art from artists and exhibiting it as part of its permanent collection, we've already seen a shift in the traditional art market toward more classical ways of buying.
Of course, this will also open the door to Crypto Art Basel, the Art Biennale, and other curated events where crypto art auctioned will break sales records at Christie’s or Sotheby’s.
Fifty years from now, those first NFT artworks by globally acclaimed artists could be as valuable as the first animations by John Whitney, the father of computer animation, back in 1960. Created the first animated art right on his computer.
Serious contemporary artists reflect and even amplify uncensored reality. In the current political environment, the marriage between established artists and censorship-free encrypted art is actually a perfect fit.
