AOTM Artists in Residence (AiR) invites a select group of non-roster artists to join the AOTM ecosystem on a quarterly basis. Structured in regular sessions of career and curatorial development with the AOTM community, each term will culminate in a digital exhibition sale via AOTM featuring new artworks created by the residents. Artworks created by the residents will also enter the AOTM Collection by exchange. AiR allows AOTM to continue on its mission to push digital art forward by taking on a more active role in the cultivation and development of different creative voices, building community, and expanding the definition of a gallery in the digital art sphere, and beyond. The concept behind AiR relates back to AOTM’s namesake, Peggy Guggenheim’s groundbreaking Art of This Century, a hybrid art gallery, art collection, museum, and meeting place for New York’s avant-garde during the 1940s. The artists, artworks, and ideas that gathered at Art of This Century would go on to have an indelible impact on the modern and contemporary art world and culture at large. AOTM honors this legacy of impactful community building, patronage, and creative exchange through its AiR initiative. The residents of AiR II are: Socmplxd, Strano, and Yosnier. The curated collection sale of AiR II will comprise unique 1/1 digital artworks as well as 48-hour open editions.
The sale will begin on August 27, 2024.
