UFDA's Articles: Insights into Ukraine's Art and Culture 29

Several months ago, the Ukrainian Fund for Digitized Art, in partnership with the Prytula Charity Foundation, held its first-ever charity NFT auction. Over three days of spirited bidding, every lot was sold, raising a total of 37,700 USDC to support the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Now, the equipment and technology purchased with these funds have finally reached their intended recipients!

The Ukrainian Fund of Digitized Art (UFDA) has officially concluded its Open Call for museums, art institutions, galleries, and independent artists, and the results are nothing short of extraordinary!

In the recent significant update, the Ukrainian Fund of Digitized Art has expanded its online catalogue to include works by renowned Ukrainian artists Nina Savenko, Taras Kobliuk, and Serhii Zakharov. This addition showcases a diverse range of artistic styles and techniques, reflecting the depth of Ukraine’s contemporary art scene.  

With great sorrow, the art world mourns the loss of Ukrainian artist Ihor Selemenev. To honor his memory, we spoke with friends and colleagues, gathering heartfelt stories, reflections, and photographs to paint a vivid portrait of the late artist.

UFDA’s Open Call for Ukrainian museums, galleries, art institutions, and individual artists is approaching its deadline. With just one week left until May 1, 2025, we encourage all interested participants to finalize their applications. This initiative aims to preserve Ukraine’s cultural heritage through digitization, ensuring its resilience and accessibility for the future.

Ukrainian Fund of Digitized Art is pleased to announce that it has extended its catalogue with outstanding works by Aleksei Bordusov, aka Aec Interesni Kazki! This new addition greatly enhances the overall portfolio, and UFDA invites everyone to see these masterpieces in full resolution. 

In a world where almost everything is going digital, art has not been an exception. What's happening with the art market after the NFT boom? Have "digital art" sales remained just a bubble, or have they become an important part of contemporary culture?

Following the success of the UFDA's first auction, we’re excited to announce that you can now request Digital Originals of masterpieces directly from our online catalogue. This unique opportunity allows both seasoned and aspiring collectors to own digitized works of art!
