In response to Head of a Bear by Leonardo da Vinci, offered in the Exceptional Sale at Christie's London July 2021, the artists duo Hackatao have created a work inspired by the Old Master drawing, bringing the bear majestically to life.
This specially commissioned digital work in Augmented Reality, unveiled at Christie's King Street 3-8 July, is visible via the Aria AR app.
The NFT is on display in a virtual exhibition on the Arium platform in collaboration with MoCa, curated by Eleonora Brizi. https://arium.xyz/spaces/hack-of-a-bear
“This is the story of the continuum of art: a superior force that knows neither age nor place. A tale about the most contemporary art, once known as Renaissance art, today going by the name of crypto art.”
