Bad Day

The Moment of Rain-I was inspired by the moment during the day when the sun is still shining, peeking through the clouds to illuminate the first few raindrops of a storm that will soon engulf the warm rays of the sun. I aimed to capture the moment where both elements coexist to create a beautiful atmosphere.

Le moment de la pluie-J'ai été inspiré par le moment de la journée où le soleil brille encore, traversant les nuages pour illuminer les premières gouttes de pluie d'un orage qui va bientôt engloutir les chauds rayons du soleil. J'ai cherché à capturer le moment où les deux éléments coexistent pour créer une atmosphère magnifique.

About Artpoint

ARTPOINT NFT acquisitions cannot be cancelled or returned once the sale has been completed.

Can I cancel a purchase?

Collect

We have developed a diverse network of the best digital artists all around the world. We contact artists based on a set of criteria that can range from exhibition history, educational background, technical excellence, conceptual rigour, social media presence, institutional engagement, and often a combination of all of these.

How are the artworks curated?

If you are an artist and are interested in exhibiting with us, you can fill out [this Typeform](https://a0nuxyynmjw.typeform.com/to/ZuAoCIkG). Enter your name, artist biography, and links to your social media accounts and portfolio so that we can get a good understanding of your practice and what you do! Think about what makes you stand out as an artist, and share this with us in your application. We recommend you take a look at our roster of existing artists and exhibition locations, so that you have a feel of what we do and can create the best application possible. :) Good luck!

How can I apply to join Artpoint as an artist?

You may sell your NFT on any marketplace that complies with the NFT's technological standard (ETH standard) and the included Metadata such as the License and Artist identification. Following such a sale or transfer, you will cease to have any further rights to that NFT.

How can I resell my NFT?

If you want to buy an NFT, click on collect now and then connect your metamask waller. Make sure you sign the contract and have sufficient funds.

How do I buy using Metamask?

To create an account, you simply need to click on join the community (link) or sign in and you’ll be able to choose if you want to connect using your email address or your metamask wallet. If you choose to use your email address, a connexion link will be sent to you by email. Be careful, the link expires.

How do I create an account?

Although the blockchain as a technology itself is secure and extremely difficult to hack, there are still instances of scamming and fraudulent behaviour in the web3 space, and collectors can lose their NFTs or crypto due to human error or deception. It is therefore extremely important to remain vigilant and stay safe in the NFT space! As a rule, **never** click on suspicious links or files sent from people you don’t know. This is one of the most common ways people get scammed in web3. When participating in NFT communities on Discord, always close your direct messages to reduce these kinds of scams. Team members from ARTPOINT will **never** message you first on Discord. Many experienced NFT traders and collectors make a habit of creating at least two or more wallets. One of these is called a ‘hot wallet’, which is the active wallet where you make most of your transactions and sign smart contracts with in order to buy, sell and trade NFTs. This wallet should contain only the minimal amount of crypto necessary to complete your NFT purchase. Once you have minted an NFT with your hot wallet, you can transfer it (this will cost gas fees) to your ‘cold wallet’, which is used more as a storage space for your NFT collection and cryptocurrencies. This wallet should never sign transactions or smart contracts, in order to keep your collection as safe as possible. Lastly, when you have a lot of crypto or own valuable NFTs, the most secure storage method is to buy a hardware wallet, such as a Ledger. These operate much like a cold wallet, but with an added technocological security measure, making it almost impossible to hack. This is by far the most secure way of storing your valuable NFTs.

How do I secure my NFT?

In the vein of exhibiting in public spaces and democratising access to digital art, we have a network of clients in the hotel industry, luxury retail, gaming, co-working spaces, and more, that double as our exhibition spaces. These clients can either access the ARTPOINT gallery to select the artists and artworks they would like to exhibit on a monthly basis, or the ARTPOINT curatorial team provides a monthly selection based on theme, technique, or the brand identity, emotions or messages the clients wish to portray.

How do the Artpoint exhibitions work?

A crypto wallet is a software on your computer or phone that allows for the sale and storage of cryptocurrencies, which are most commonly used to acquire NFTs. There are multiple cryptowallets available, but MetaMask and WalletConnect are two of the main applications that people use to create their wallets.

NFT 101

‘Gas fees’ refer to an amount that must be paid each time a transaction or transfer is conducted on the blockchain. These fees are paid directly to Ethereum miners who validate transactions on the blockchain and make them possible. Gas fees vary in price throughout the day, depending on the volume of activity currently being effectuated on the chain - so don’t be surprised if you see the fee amount changing! NFT platforms, including ARTPOINT, do not profit from or receive any of these fees.

What can I do with my NFT as a collector?

Here at ARTPOINT, creating a loyal and passionate collectorship of digital art is extremely important to us. We want to create a community of digital art lovers that are passionate about this unique artistic medium, and want to build with us to see digital art thrive in both the traditional art world and in the web3 space. Collectors of ARTPOINT benefit from various rewards and utilities. Our main and unique offering at ARTPOINT is creating exhibitions of digital art and NFTs in the real world, in public spaces such as hotels, companies, luxury retail centres, and more. Collectors are invited to the openings of the exhibitions ARTPOINT curates, have the opportunity to meet their favourite artists, and will receive visuals of their artworks exhibited in public spaces to share amongst their communities. On top that, collectors can earn ARTPOINT coins, which can be used to vote on key decisions such as curatorial choices for the next ARTPOINT NFT drop, or can be exchanged for discounts on future artwork acquisitions. Lastly, due to our robust network of clients in spaces such as hotels, we provide rewards such as spa days, access to co-working spaces, or free beverages and refreshments at hotel bars.

What does it mean to be a part of our community?

The blockchain is a decentralised, permanent, transparent and publicly accessible ledger of data, that records crypto transactions, including those of NFTs. Blockchain technology rests on the principles of transparency, immutability and they are permissionless, which means that they are strengthened and secured by the number of people and data that are accumulated. There is therefore no need for a central body to authenticate the information displayed.

What is a blockchain?

What is a wallet?

A NFT (non-fungible token) is a unique digital asset, protected and authenticated on the blockchain. NFTs are non-interchangeable and non-modifiable units of data stored on the blockchain that can be sold or transferred to other people. This technology allows for a transparent vision on who owns the digital asset, and what the provenance or previous sales and transactions of the asset are.

What is an NFT ?

The communication of the personal data requested is strictly necessary for the performance of the services. The personal data collected by Artpoint will be kept for the time necessary for the Parties to fulfil the contractual obligations of the Parties under the present Terms and Conditions of Services. Artpoint implements appropriate organizational and technical measures to ensure the security of personal data collected from its Users. Under no circumstances will the data collected be resold. The User has the right to access, rectify and delete his personal data.

What is the privacy policy regarding the data collecting?

What is the roadmap?

One of ARTPOINT’s primary missions is to bridge the web2 and web3 art worlds. When conducting market research before the launch of our NFT platform, we realised that many traditional art collectors knew of Ethereum, but not necessarily other blockchains. In order to introduce traditional collectors to the NFT art market, we believe that Ethereum is the chain that instills the most confidence. In the near future, we look forward to The Merge, and encourage developing blockchain technologies that aim to reduce impact on the environment.

Which protocol are we using?

ARTPOINT is a Paris-based start-up specialized in the promotion of digital art since 2019. Our mission is to support the best digital artists worldwide and to democratize access to art. Artpoint enables you to discover, collect and display digital art. - **Discover** Artpoint represents more than 250 digital artists coming from more than 40 countries has developed a unique collection of more than 3,000 digital artworks ranging from 3D to generative art and photogrammetry. - **Collect** We make our community of hand-picked artists available to true patrons and art collectors, and we leverage our expanding exhibition network to showcase NFT collections on screens in places that truly value them. - **Display** We offer access to curated selections directly on screen in exchange for a monthly subscription. Our streaming solution is now available for public and private spaces that wish to enrich the experience of the public and beautify their spaces. ARTPOINT creates a link between NFTs and the real world by bringing them to life in places frequented by the public on a daily basis. We believe that well-executed physical exhibitions of crypto art contribute positively to general public awareness of NFTs, and can only provide value to collectors, artists and viewers alike. With ARTPOINT, NFT art doesn’t just stay locked in a wallet, but comes to life.

Who is Artpoint?

Artists are still the owners of the Intellectual Property on their artworks but collectors detain the rights of usage of the work in private spaces and on social media.

The digital sculptures reenchant spaces by adapting perfectly to their forms and main components. By arousing the emotions of the public, the work offers a new perception of the space.

digital sculpture

A generative work is a work that is generated in real time according to certain predefined parameters. The artist creates a computer code and it is the algorithm that executes the final rendering of the work. The work is then no longer shown in its frozen form: it is a continuous flow.

generative art

We are able to deploy 360° universes in order to immerse the spectator in a multi-sensorial experience mixing art and technology. Visual production, sound, broadcasting support: everything is designed according to your space.

immersive art

Interactivity is a very fertile field of experimentation for digital artists. The spectator passes from a passive approach to an active one since he co-creates the work in real time. He does not only contemplate the work, but it is now his body that is engaged in this innovative and fascinating artistic experience.
