Crypto Art Seoul is Asia’s premier annual crypto art event. Embracing the rapidly evolving Web 3.0 paradigm, Crypto Art Seoul captures the innovative art and technology movement redefining boundaries. Guided by Korea’s Hongik spirit—“benefiting all humanity”—we seek to discover synergies and exemplary cases and to share meaningful discourses vividly and profoundly amidst the dynamic momentum of crypto art.
10. Exhibition/event details
The theme “Cross-Pollination” originally describes the process of pollen transferring between flowers to achieve fertilization. In art, it metaphorically represents the fusion of diverse ideas, cultures, and technologies to create new artistic expressions. This concept can be applied to the amalgamation of crypto art and phygital art, symbolizing various artistic integrations. Crypto Art Seoul 2024 will serve as a crucial platform where crypto art and contemporary art interact, seeking new artistic possibilities.
