Collaboration to Launch Art Initiative

Gamma.io, Xverse and Bitcoin Magazine are collaborating to launch an initiative aimed at highlighting new forms of art on the longest-running and most secure blockchain – Bitcoin. The three companies will be showcasing emerging visual artists at Bitcoin 2023’s Ordinals Alley – the first-ever fine art gallery for Bitcoin inscriptions presented at a global gathering of Bitcoiners in Miami Beach from May 18-20.

Exploring Relationships Between Art & Crypto Community

The curation of Ordinals Alley is being co-led by Dennis Koch (art gallery director for Bitcoin Magazine) and Hugo Pouchard (art curator and advisor for Gamma and Xverse). According to Pouchard, “Ordinals protocol is a remarkable technology empowering artists and their works in the long run. The gallery will explore the evolving relationship between the art world, the medium, and the crypto community.“

Artist Open Call

In addition to exhibiting artwork from established visual artists, an Artist Open Call has been launched as an opportunity for rising artists to showcase their work to a global audience. A curation committee consisting of members from Art Blocks, 6529, Bright Moments, The Medici Collection – all with experience in traditional art galleries and auction houses – will select six showcased artists from submissions made through this open call.

Empowering Creators with Simple Tools

Jamil Dhanani (Founder and CEO of Gamma) commented that „Gamma’s focus from day one has been to empower creators with simple and powerful tools to launch their works on Bitcoin. Together with Xverse we’re bringing even more visibility and exposure to emerging artists from web3 – those interested in Bitcoin for the first time.“
