Silver's exhibition at the Louvre is just one example of the growing trend of major art institutions embracing blockchain-based talent. Cozomo de’ Medici donated several of his digital artworks to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), while Yuga Labs donated a CryptoPunk to Paris’ Centre Pompidou. Refik Anadol is also presenting his generative art at the New York Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in a temporary installation titled "Unsupervised."
WME, a global talent agency, has also signed Silver as its first AI artist. The agency has been expanding its roster of NFT artists and developers, with Dapper Labs and CryptoKitties co-founder Mack Flavelle, NFT gallery Bright Moments, NFT project Non-Fungible Heroes, NFT startup Boss Beauties, and NFT artist Valfré all on its list of Web3 talent. With the support of agencies like WME and the growing acceptance of blockchain technology and NFTs, we can expect to see more AI artists and digital art exhibitions in the future.
There is a digital transformation in the world of art, with major galleries and museums adopting blockchain technology and NFTs in order to exhibit and sell their works of art.

With more and more artists and institutions embracing this technology, we can expect to see an increase in digital art exhibitions and sales in the future.
