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.

Foundation, a Prominent NFT Platform of the 2021 Boom, Shuts Down After Failed Sale

Foundation, a prominent Ethereum-based NFT marketplace that launched during the 2021 digital art boom, has announced it will shut down following a failed acquisition by the digital art company Blackdove. CEO Kayvon Tehranian confirmed that the platform has entered a one-year wind-down phase, urging users to migrate their assets as no other viable buyers exist in the current market. The closure follows the collapse of a deal that was intended to provide long-term stewardship for the platform, which had facilitated over $230 million in sales since its inception.
