The mixed reality interactive experience kicks off December 1st at the Bagatelle Miami with an exclusive NFT Marketplace, AR Treasure Hunt for prize filled Bagatelle Coins and a Support Ukrainian Relief Efforts donation

SmartMedia Technologies, the enterprise Web3 platform the future is being built on, have partnered with W1 Curates, the world’s largest digital art gallery for the ‘Phygital’ activation, which has been created to celebrate Art Basel 2023.

Starting December 1st, the art experience will fuse digital and physical elements together into one seamless experience, curated by Sarah Masaki. The event will unveil the first US screening of the world’s most exclusive collection of privately owned NFT’s, which have a total value of $200-400M and represent the combined collections of Cozomo de’ Medici and 33NFT, owner of the $69M Beeple NFT purchased at Christie’s last year.

The experience launches with a VIP preview evening hosted by the Bagatelle Group, the global hospitality brand synonymous with luxury hospitality experiences, where a collection of large-scale sculptures and paintings by world renowned artists Michael Benisty, Eva Lanska, Noah Becker, Lauren Baker, Maxim Zhestkov and others will be displayed throughout the Bagatelle restaurant. The experience’s Digital Wallet offers attendees the opportunity to purchase digital versions of their breathtaking art through an exclusive NFT marketplace, powered by SMT technology, enabling guests to own digital versions of the globally acclaimed artists’ work, many for the first time ever.
