It’s rolling out a new initiative to donate CryptoPunks to museums and galleries around the world.Yuga Labs will donate CryptoPunk #305 to the institute as part of a new initiative to put iconic NFTs from the collection in museums and galleries all over the world.
That CryptoPunks has been chosen for this over its other collections is hardly surprising. Since June this year, it has been headed by brand lead Noah Davis — the former head of digital art at Christie's auction house — who says that"aesthetically speaking, Punks are about as chic as Donald Judd furniture or Piet Mondrian paintings" and believes that CryptoPunks deserve to be on the walls of contemporary art and design institutions worldwide.
NFT art galleries are a staple of the metaverse, but this isn’t the first time NFTs have gone on display in museums and other real-life institutions — where they are often displayed on large screens that mimic canvases hanging on a wall. Earlier this year, the world’s first NFT museum in Seattle launched as an outlet for artists, creators and collectors to display their pieces and educate the public about digital art.
