UFDA Launch: Presenting the Ukrainian Fund of Digitized Art

UFDA is Ukraine's first and most extensive open online catalog of digitized and tokenized artworks. UFDA represents artists whose works are featured in some of the most famous museums and collections worldwide, including MoMA, the Guggenheim Museum, the Art Institute of Chicago, Museum Ludwig, the Whitney Museum, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the Ukrainian Museum in New York, Collección SOLO, Fondation Maeght, the Centre Pompidou, the Kadist Foundation, Mystetskyi Arsenal, Collezione Rigo-Saitta, the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw, and many more.

The works of our artists have been offered for sale at renowned auction houses such as Christie’s, Sotheby’s, Artnet, and Golden’s Auction House, among others. Additionally, several of our artists have represented Ukraine at the Venice Biennale. It is becoming a reliable digital archive of Ukrainian creativity. The masterpieces of talented Ukrainian artists collected in it will be stored in digital format, ensuring their "eternal life" and visibility on an entirely new level to art lovers worldwide.

Do you remember how the pages of Ukrainian 20th-century history were crossed out and, with them, the fates of thousands of talented artists? Their paintings, which could have adorned the world's best museums, were ruthlessly destroyed, exported, or appropriated. How many masterpieces of Ukrainian art have disappeared forever into the abyss of oblivion? We can only guess how many brilliant works were lost or mistakenly labeled "russian." This must not happen again! We have taken responsibility for preserving this heritage for future generations and are doing our best. We have created the UFDA - the most extensive open online catalog, allowing millions worldwide to experience the highest quality Ukrainian art.

Collectors can purchase each counterpart and get the exclusive right to own a digital counterpart of physical artwork, which is firmly secured and guaranteed by law. 100% of the profit from sales goes to charity funds in Ukraine.

The catalog was created with Digital Original support, which ensures the high quality and legal protection of digitized original artworks. Each work is checked for copyright before digitization. The digitization is carried out in the highest possible resolution using Digital Light Capture Technology. The work's token is minted during the purchase, and its data is stored in the Blockchain network.
