What Blockchains Enable for Fine Art, with Nanne Dekking (Artory)

Nanne Dekking is the Founder & CEO of Artory (www.artory.com). Artory is unlocking art & collectibles as a credible asset class—providing the expertise, tech, network, and data to deliver institutional-grade liquidity and financial products to the art market. Artory was the first company to tokenize an art auction, holds one of the largest databases of transaction data for art (which powers Art Basel’s yearly art report), and has worked with art powerhouses like Christie’s, Sotheby’s, Winston Art Group, & more. In this episode we discuss being an early mover in web3 from within the traditional art market, the impact of transparency (via technology) on an opaque market like fine art, some drivers of valuation in the art world (and how Artory’s work assists credible valuation), the art funds they’re creating alongside the Winston Art Group, & much more.
