Celebrating Diversity and Inclusion – An NFT gallery to be exhibited at Democracy4All

The Ampans Foundation, which works to promote education, quality of life and employment for people with intellectual disabilities, will exhibit works created by its members during the international conference Democracy4All, November 10 and 11 at Llotja de Mar.

Democracy4All, also known as D4A, is an event of international reference in the techno-political sector organized by CBCat (Blockchain Center of Catalonia) of the Barcelona Chamber of Commerce, in collaboration with the Department of the Vice-Presidency and Digital Policies and Territory.

The focus of Democracy4All makes it a unique event in the world as it revolves around the use of blockchain as an instrument for democratic improvement in terms of social, business and individual governance. The event positions Catalonia as the most important international meeting point for political actors and institutions from all over the world, and helps to accelerate the dialogue between state bodies and new technologies.

The exhibition, entitled “L’Art de viure: Celebrating diversity and inclusion”, will be organized in collaboration with Cripto es Cultura, a platform that aims to promote local artists and creators, especially women and minority collectives, in their first steps towards financial and creative self-sufficiency, educate them to enter the NFT and Web3 space, make their art and projects visible, and create synergies between artists, creators, collectors, brands and enthusiasts of this technology. The founder of this initiative, Sabrina Bonini, is also the curator of this special collection.

The artists of the Ampans Foundation are part of L’Art de Viure (“art of life”), one of the activities of the foundation’s vocational center. The main purpose of this center is to give people the necessary means to discover and develop their artistic talent, to strengthen it and make it valuable in society. L’Art de Viure was created as an opportunity to showcase the skills of some very special artists, where diversity is an inspiring and creative value to be promoted.

The collaboration between Ampans, Cripto es Cultura and CBCat will allow participants of the L’Art de Viure workshop to learn about the benefits of NFTs, a digital format that uses blockchain technology to protect the intellectual property of creators and prevent plagiarism and unauthorized appropriation. Artists will also have the opportunity to present, in front of the conference participants, their works created inspired by the twelve principles of good governance established by the Council of Europe, which are also at the heart of the conferences that will take place at Democracy4All.
