Description

The Museum of Contemporary Digital Art (MoCDA) is a museum platform founded in 2019. We seek to support the digital art category by documenting, collecting and advancing the position of digital art in a global context through unique curatorial insight and education. Our team features experienced curators who share the ambition of providing many exciting opportunities to learn about the creative potential of digital tools, including the metaverse. In the past two years, we curated international art shows around the world including New York, London, Istanbul and Venice. MoCDA hosted many special events aimed at presenting and discussing what makes digital culture and art unique. We bring our expertise in opening IRL exhibitions to the metaverse by experimenting with unique features that Decentraland offers to curators and artists alike. We are always seeking innovative ways to diversify and expand the platform. We have organised several special exhibitions at the University District in Decentraland over the past two years, welcoming thousands of visitors. Three of the most recent exhibitions we opened: “Digital Embodiments And Interventions: The Sculptural World of Marjan Moghaddam” (4th June-10th September 2021), solo show featuring a selection of works by pioneering artist Marjan Moghaddam “Memento Minti - If you stop contributing, you will be forgotten” (8th January-27th March 2022), group show featuring Jisu Choe, Dancevatar, Silvio Lorusso, Nicolas Sassoon and Sasha Stiles “(Do Not) Touch” (8th April-2nd July 2022), group show featuring Sasha Katz, Baron Lanteigne and Martina Menegon These exhibitions attracted thousands of visitors. For example, “Memento Minti”’s POAP was collected 1600+ times in the first two days and “(Do Not) Touch” collected 1200+ times within the first hour. The work of our dedicated team for each Decentraland exhibition involves preliminary research, installation planning and curatorial strategies. Our curators will always plan at least three special events associated with each exhibition. This will enable more opportunities for visitors to visit the show and take full advantage of Decentraland’s space as a social environment, where people from diverse backgrounds can gather to enjoy art and interact with one another.
