Title: Tradition Meets Tech

Subtitle: The First Year of Ìtàn’s West African Art Curation

Blurb/Shorttext:

Explore the intersection of tradition and technology - this compelling collection delves into Ìtàn’s inaugural year of curatorial work, focusing primarily on Nigerian artists and the rich tapestry of West African art. Showcasing both digital and traditional mediums, the book highlights how these artists use blockchain technology to monetize their creativity while telling powerful, culturally resonant stories. Alongside its groundbreaking on-chain exhibitions, Ìtàn has also brought these works to life through a series of parallel, real-world gallery shows, bridging the gap between digital and physical art spaces.
