WAGMI: Kuwait’s First IRL NFT Exhibition
Contemporary Art Platform Kuwait | CAP Kuwait
Kuwait Design Center, Mezzanine
Industrial Shuwaikh, Block 2, Street 28
Nov 15 2022 – December 17th 2022
WAGMI brings together over 100 international NFT artists from both traditional art and digital art backgrounds, and introduces NFT art for the first time ever in a museum in Kuwait. It has been curated by Shurooq Amin as a minimalistic fairytale story, with a yellow brick road taking the viewer down a meandering path past all the artworks exuberantly popping out of camouflaged screens or projected gigantically onto walls, walking under gilded empty birdcages to symbolize the escape from Web2 to Web3, and culminating in a spiral towards the center room “Futurism”. Other areas in the gallery include the “Flora” corridor and the “Brushstrokes” hall.
Amy Karle is one of the artists in this group exhibition, and is giving a related artist talk.
