Online Symposium: The Future of NFTs in the art world image

Aldo Rubino built his entire career as a finance specialist, working on national and multinational companies. He began collecting art in the late 1980s. Over the years he defined a profile based on local and international contemporary art with special emphasis on geometric abstraction.

Followed by a strong desire to open the collection to the general public, in 2009 he took the decision to create a museum space, constructing for this purpose a new building thought to house his permanent collection, exhibitions and multiple activities related to art. In 2012 Rubino founded the MACBA – Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Buenos Aires, located in the traditional neighbourhood of San Telmo.

Born in Argentina, Rubino lives between Buenos Aires and New York.

Pauline Foessel is the curator and entrepreneur behind Artpool whose extensive work as director at art institutions, galleries and studios has shaped her understanding of the art landscape globally. Pauline Foessel is the curator and entrepreneur behind Artpool whose extensive work as director at art institutions, galleries and studios has shaped her understanding of the art landscape globally.

Formerly known as Art Curator Grid, Artpool is the first social network to build an international community of curators, and grows from its matrix to further Foessel’s mission of connecting artists, art organizations and collectors. Aware of the financial barriers that institutions face around the world today, she created Artpool to simplify fundraising by harnessing blockchain technology coupled with a playful and inclusive user experience.

Beyond shaping the art tech space, Foessel’s work as co-director at Underdogs Gallery and her previous directorship of Alexandre Farto's Vhils Studio placed Lisbon on the global map of contemporary public art while promoting a generation of urban artists. She approaches digital with the same sense of awe that public art produces, believing in the power of art to foster global relationships.

In addition to her work in Lisbon, Foessel, a native of Grenoble, France, has held management and development positions at Galerie Magda Danysz in Paris and Shanghai and at the Hong Kong Contemporary Art (HOCA) Foundation. She earned her master's degree in Entrepreneurial Management from SKEMA Business School in Lille and an MBA Exchange Program from Concordia University in Montreal, Canada.

Solimán López, born in Burgos, Spain in 1981, develops his artistic production between his studio in Paris, France (UAS, Updated Art Studio) and ESAT LAB, Innovation department that he runs at ESAT, Escuela Superior de Arte y Tecnología de Valencia, Spain.

His career as an art historian and master’s degree in Art and Communication have conditioned his artistic evolution towards what we could call conceptual technological art.

His work with the meaning and nature of digital archives, as shown by some pieces such as the Harddiskmuseum, an art museum on a hard disk, Framed Memory Card, Host-in, Langpath or File Genesis or more recent works in which virtual and analog worlds are connected through photogrammetry as in High Meshes, are examples of his interest in human presence and its impact in this era of communication and digitalization.

In line with this breaking down of the two frontiers, we can find pieces such as GRID, an audiovisual symphony modulated in real time by the wifi signal of nearby devices, Celeste, which connects the digitised skies of different places in the world also, in real time, or Bioma, a sculpture that creates digital abstractions through biometric data of its environment.

Technically, his works are achieved thanks to the combination of 3D techniques, electronics, software programming, artificial intelligence, virtual and augmented reality and digital synchronization.

His career has been built on festivals, biennials, art centers, events and museums in Spain, USA. U, China, South Korea, France, Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela, Colombia, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Greece, Uruguay, Germany, England, Italy, Portugal and Switzerland among other locations, highlighting the events of the Biennial of Digital Art in Brazil, the Biennial Nemo de Paris (Variations Art Fair), the Chronus Art Center in Shanghai, ISSEA 2019, the ZKM of Karlsruhe, Art Santa Mónica of Barcelona, the CCCC of Valencia, the IVAM of Valencia, Etopia of Zaragoza, the CAB of Burgos, the CEART of Fuenlabrada in Madrid, La Lonja of Alicante, Cigarreras of Alicante, CAC of Málaga, Es Baluard museum of Mallorca or the Nuit Blanche of Paris 2019 and the last presentations at Ars Electronica and its Barcelona Garden with our partner Instituto Espronceda, the Hermitage in Saint Petersburg, the Digital Art Biennale in Ukraine, Sonar Plus in Barcelona or the Artissima fair in Turin. In the next month of February Solimán will participate in two fairs, ARCO 22 and Urvanity,both in Madrid.

His work as a researcher in new media has been shared in several universities such as the UFSM in Brazil, the University Carlos III in Madrid, the Google Campus in Madrid, the UPV in Valencia, the Bancaja Fundación, the Injuve, TEDx Valladolid, the Universidad de Cuenca, the Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, Argentina, MediaLab Prado, Madrid or Technarte Bilbao, among others.
