The 2023 event will focus on current trends in
the Art World and the preparation progress for Web03, AI and NFT
marketplaces. Industry experts, investors, and entrepreneurs kindly
agreed to partake as our special guests to discuss their views on
the future during a focused round table moderated by WISe.ART’s Art
Director, Sixtine Crutchfield. She says “Clearly, we look at what
most call a Crypto Winter as a time to solidify and better foresee
how the industry must build its foundations.”
To select the 2023 Excellence Award Winners, the
WISe.ART team ran a campaign on its social media platforms and
asked the global community to vote for their favorite art piece.
After one month, we identified the winners in the following
categories: Over People’s Choice, Philanthropy, Digital and
physical Art, Photography, Audio and Video.
The Winners are:
The WISe.ART NFT OF THE YEAR AWARDS 2023
recognize, celebrate, showcase, and promote the most outstanding
NFT artworks, projects, and concepts and to connect their
outstanding creativity and artwork with investors, patrons, and
collectors from all over the world.
Furthermore, discussions will also focus on
recent NFT trends. Despite the demise of the Crypto Currency
market, collectors are spending more, not less, on NFT art,
according to the Art Market Report. ‘It can become addictive,’ some
admit to author Brian Boucher of ArtNet News for ArtBasel.
Crypto winter (or ice age, whichever it turns
out to be) hasn’t cooled collectors’ appetite for digital artworks,
according to “A Survey of Global Collecting” in 2022, co-published
by Art Basel and UBS, prepared by Dr. Clare McAndrew, Founder of
Arts Economics. On the contrary, just in the first half of 2022,
high-net-worth collectors spent an average of $46,000 on art-based
NFTs, more than all of 2021 ($44,000) and 2020 ($35,000). A robust
17% of their spending was on digital art, including 10% linked to
an NFT.
