Highlights of NFT Taipei
1. Second OneOffsNFT International Art Fair
The first "OneOffs NFT International Art Fair" kicked off last year with the explosion of the metaverse, combining the "native" of the art world with the "meta" of NFTs, creating over 30,000 visitors amidst the global craze.
The second OneOffs will once again collaborate with W Taipei, exploring the theme "Butterfly Effect" to discuss whether the NFT and art market will ultimately become a bubble or successfully transform. This year, it will also feature "generative art" and "interactive art" for the first time, hoping to guide the public to interact with the works through interactive technology, presenting the intertwining of time and space, and the interaction between reality and illusion.
In addition to inviting over a hundred prominent local Taiwanese artists such as Yang Yiping, Pan Yicheng, Zhang Yujia, Chen Pu, and Chen Taihua, as well as emerging artists from 30 countries, this year will also expand to include NFT blue-chip projects and communities from both domestic and international sources, such as Nike's Web3 fashion brand RTFKT collaborating with Japanese contemporary art master Takashi Murakami's CloneX, and the international blue-chip project BAYC's PARTIST… among others.
The execution team for this fair is led by OneOffs CEO Enoch He, COO Julia Dong, and NFT Consultant Justine Lü, along with an international curatorial and professional advisory team, to create a multi-dimensional art experience for NFT Taipei, exploring new forms of the art market!
