Past viewing_room
Launching on 2nd October will be HOFA's first NFT release through the first-of-its-kind NFT Gallery auction house, HOFA.io.
The auction will feature NFTs by well-established contemporary artist Johnny 'King Nerd' Dowell and internationally renowned street artist Jan Kaláb, both known for their traditional creative practices. The auction will also feature NFTs by some of the most talented digital artists in the world, Marc Ferrer and Adam Martinakis.
Follow the how-to guide below to acquire the unique NFTs below.
Jan Kaláb began his career in graffiti in the early 1990s, after the fall of the Soviet Union. His adolescence was marked by this historical turning point and he was seized by the development of an urban art reclaiming public space. Never short of ideas and constantly seeking to push the limits of his art, Kaláb bypasses the classic codes of urban art and aerosol painting to introduce sculpture into his works and create three-dimensional graffiti on wood or polystyrene.
Adam Martinakis was born in Poland in 1972 to a Polish mother and Greek father. After moving to Athens, he studied Architecture, Decorative Arts and Industrial Design. Since 2000, Martinakis has experimented with computer-generated visual media, including animation, 3D imagery, and digital videos. He soon began teaching digital art & design, graphics and interior design across various art institutes, and is a member of the Greek Chamber of Fine Arts.
Martinakis is now one of the most notable digital sculptors in the contemporary art scene, as well as being a widely recognised pioneer in the world of Digital Art and 3D Design. He has featured in 12 solo shows and 25 group shows, and has drawn more attention than ever since the recent exponential growth in the NFT space.
Marc Ferrer was born in 1990 and is a graphic designer that specialises in identity and digital design.
He tends to develop projects from a conceptual standpoint and worked for a handful of design studios and agencies, spending the last 5 years at Mario Eskenazi Studio.
Ferrer is a very exciting prospect in the NFT space, and has garnered widespread attention in recent months for his impressively sophisticated animated works.
Artist Johnny Dowell is born & raised in London and is also a designer and engraver. Fifteen years an engraver for one of the worlds most famous gunsmiths James Purdey & Sons. Since then he has gone by the Artist name of King Nerd and has designed/engraved in collaboration with such companies as watch brands, motorcycle & car, alcohol & audio companies. Tulip Mania is King Nerds Genesis NFT and will be auctioned along with the physical coin. His coin art is owned by the likes of Elton John, Paul Smith, Tyson Fury.
