New York's digital art gallery reboot

Two new galleries specializing in digital art have opened in New York's Lower East Side: Offline, a physical marketplace launched by the NFT platform SuperRare, and Heft Gallery, founded by curator and artist Adam Heft Berninger. Offline debuted in April with the exhibition "Mythologies for a Spiritually Void Time," featuring works by artists like Neal Cashman, while Heft Gallery focuses on artists using AI, code, and algorithms, with works such as Margaret Murphy's AI-generated photograph. Both spaces aim to bridge Web3 and traditional art venues, offering physical experiences for digital art.
