“As a platform focussed on curating the very best emerging artists, we are incredibly excited to build out opportunities for our creative community in the creation and distribution of next generation collectibles,” said OpenLab CEO, Quentin Chambers.
OpenLab has a reputation for working with artists at the forefront of the contemporary art scene. Limited edition prints by Brazil-based, French photographer Elsa Leydier (winner Prix Ruinart Paris Photo 2019 and the Dior Prize for Photography for Young Talents 2019), New York photographer Charlie Rubin and Japanese artist Hanae Utamura are amongst the stellar names who have brought their award-winning art to the OpenLab community.
OpenLab has been holding events in Ibiza since 2016, with residencies and regulars at Heart (now Club Chinoise), Elements, Sankeys (now Octan), Destino, and Space (now HI).
Starting in summer 2022, OpenLab will be hosting nights and rooms at NUI Ibiza, Pacha for Saga, and Akasha, as well as curating a number of beach-side hangouts at Ibiza’s coolest locations. OpenLab are also hosting small and intimate live streamed sets from their Hangar 8289 base where Future Pass holders can see some of the world’s most exciting artists perform close up.
From fall 2022, OpenLab will expand its in-person music and art events to London, with a series of intimate parties at one of London’s most exclusive venues. These will coincide with the launch of OpenLab’s ‘New Mycelium Network’ NFT Collection at Koko London and Hangar 8289 Ibiza.
TokenTraxx has a mission to be at the center of a new independent music and arts creator economy by providing a platform driven by NFTs which supports and financially benefits the whole arts community. Launched this year, musicians Max Rad, Jay10, and digital artist volstrate have already dropped NFTs on TokenTraxx. More recently, cult multimedia artist and award-winning musician, Rat Boy released his original creation, DYSTOPIA WORLD where eerie, yet captivating characters, items, and emblems are paired with brand new tracks and packaged as NFTs.
