We are all seers. Look into the smoke and what stories, what images does your mind conjure? Out of randomness and noise, forms emerge. We are smoke and form, yes evolving in a process in which the technology we harness brings about changes the human mind. And the evolved mind creates revolutionary tools and yet we have a failure to communicate.

<p>On est tous des voyants. Regardez dans la fumée et quelles histoires, quelles images votre esprit imagine-t-il ? Du hasard et du bruit, des formes émergent. Nous sommes de la fumée et des formes, oui, évoluant dans un processus dans lequel la technologie que nous exploitons entraîne des changements dans l'esprit humain. Et l'esprit évolué crée des outils révolutionnaires et pourtant nous avons un échec de communication. Dessins d'oscilloscope utilisés pour entraîner plusieurs modèles d'IA à l'aide de StyleGAN3.

As far as intellectual property rights are concerned, we set up the legal framework best suited to the project and your needs: a simple license, exclusive license or assignment of intellectual property rights. Artpoint takes care of all the legal aspects between you and the artist.

What are the tax advantages of creating a work of art?

Of course! As a client, you have access to a dedicated account on our platform, and are guided through the creation of your playlists.

Can I choose my artwork?

This type of project can be deployed either for a one-time event or on a long-term basis. If it is set up for an event, the artwork will of course be yours after the event!

Is it for a one-off event or for the long term?

Do I own the artwork once it's been created?

The possibilities are endless. Artpoint will work with you to develop the project that suits you best. The work can take a digital form and be distributed via screens, your internal networks or your social networks, for example. The work can also take a physical form (printed format of the work or digital sculpture) and even combine tangibility and intangibility. Together, we will define the scope of the project, its final form and the best way to display it.

Is the artwork digital, physical or both?

Artpoint is committed to meeting every type of budget and need. The proposed rates vary according to the artist commissioned, the technical nature of the work, the technical equipment used, the timeline and the intellectual property rights to the work. Give us two potential price ranges and we'll show you the extent to which the artistic proposals may vary according to your budgets!

How much does it cost to create a work of art?

We'll help you find the techniques and inspirations that are the perfect match for your project from a network of over 500 artists, from all over the world. After an initial screening, we will present you with several artistic proposals, created especially for you. Then, you will be able to select the artist of your choice!

How many artworks can I exhibit?

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 the blockchain?

Given the specific nature of the NFT involved in the transaction, which requires instant execution, the right of withdrawal cannot be exercised. Therefore, no refunds are possible. All NFT purchases are final. All purchases and associated fees are non-refundable.

Can I cancel my purchase?

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.

Who owns the copyright to my NFT?

‘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 are gas fees?

COMMON QUESTIONS

Explore artworks by theme

Featured collections

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.
