NFTs, Blockchain, Cryptocurrency, Metaverse: A Silent Digital Revolution 
That Has Transformed the Art Market.

The sale of Beeple’s Non-Fungible Token (NFT) artwork 
"Everydays—Everydays: The First 5000 Days" for over $69.3 million at 
Christie’s online auction on 11 March 2021 ruptured the contemporary art 
market, representing the coming of a new era of exhibiting, selling, and 
collecting digital art. Indeed, in 2021, NFT became Collins Dictionary’s 
word of the year, and total sales in the crypto art market have reached 
$127.6 million.

The international scholarly open access journal Arts (ISSN 2076-0752) is 
now inviting submissions for the Special Issue “NFTs, Blockchain, 
Cryptocurrency, Metaverse: A Silent Digital Revolution That Has 
Transformed the Art Market”. We welcome original academic papers 
(6,000-8,000 words), based on either qualitative or quantitative 
research methods, that reveal how contemporary art market players, 
including artists, art galleries, art fairs, act auctions, art 
collectors, and online art marketplaces, have endorsed the phenomena of 
NFTs, blockchain, cryptocurrency, and metaverse. Both theoretical and 
empirical contributions that address digital art trends from a 
multidisciplinary perspective and examine their significance for the art 
market's current state and future evolution will also be considered.

If you are interested in contributing to the Special Issue, please send 
a short abstract (250-300 words) alongside your CV to Dr. Elena Sidorova 
(elena.sidorova at sciencespo.fr) by 31 October 2022. The submission 
deadline for full-length articles is set for 31 January 2023. There is 
no fee to publish with the Special Issue.
