SAN JOSE, CA, USA, January 27, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Leading NFT artists and emerging players in the art world are offering 22 all-new NFTs in the '22 FOR 2022' auction taking place January 26 through February 8, 2022. The auction is presented by Artsy and Verisart bringing works by contemporary artists with NFTs across artistic disciplines, styles, and generations. Participating artists reflect a variety of mediums such as AI, painting, installation, digital imagery, photography, robotics, sculpture, and video. Some of the prominent artists include Shepard Fairey, Pindar Van Arman, Mario Klingemann, Vhils, Penny Slinger, and more.

One of the featured artists, Pindar Van Arman, started on his technology enabled transformative art journey almost 20 years ago by using AI to teach robots to paint with a brush on canvas. He worked in obscurity for many years until being featured in an NPR story that led to his TEDx Talk ‘Teaching Creativity to Robots.’ From there, his work grew in popularity and went on to win multiple international honors including the Shortlist at Barbican’s Dev-Art Competition in 2014 and the First Place Prize in Robot Art 2018. An early crypto enthusiast, Van Arman was one of the first artists creating art on the blockchain. His ‘bitGANs’ are a culmination of his life’s work with AI and crypto. They are a brief history of the space as well as a semi-autobiographical record of his journey through it. Pindar Van Arman’s, ‘Ghosts in the Machine - bitGANg 1001’ (2022) is taking an early lead at the ‘22 FOR 2022’ auction.
