DANAE.IO is pleased, in collaboration with the City of Paris and la Fondation pour la sauvegarde de l'art français, to present the first Historical and Cultural Heritage NFT project, built on the blockchain, created by Claire Adelfang, deeply engaged in the development of cultural heritage.
In the endeavor to pass on heritage to current and future generations, collaboration with contemporary artists and the digital realm proves to be a valuable avenue of transmission. Claire Adelfang exemplifies this approach by reinterpreting the sacred space of Saint-Étienne-du-Mont church through an immersive in-situ artwork. Her creative intervention breathes new life into the site, engaging visitors and fostering a connection between tradition and innovation. Through this collaboration, Adelfang's work becomes a powerful medium for storytelling and igniting an appreciation for cultural heritage in the present and beyond.
CLAIRE ADELFANG
Born in 1984, Paris, France
Claire Adelfang (represented by the Thaddaeus Ropac Gallery from 2012 to 2019) is perfectly consistent with this deep relationship to History, having worked at the Palace of Versailles, the Paris Opera and having starting a collaboration with the Centre des Monuments National and a photographic commission in 2023 for the Château de Villers-Cotterêts.
