Legendäre Kënschtler Yoshitaka Amano Partner mat Astar Network fir seng nei NFT Kollektioun

29. September 2022 - Singapur, Singapur

Astar Network, a smart contracts platform for multichain, today announces its partnership with the legendary artist Yoshitaka Amano to create and release an exclusive NFT collection on the Astar blockchain.

This is the first time Amano’s fantasy worlds and characters will come to life on a blockchain, where his art can interact with the projects and communities of Astar.

Yoshitaka Amano is a renowned Japanese artist responsible for iconic artwork including ‘Speed Racer,’ ‘Sandman: The Dream Hunters’ cover art and most notably ‘Final Fantasy.’

A pioneer in creating impossible worlds that pull from his interests in Western culture, Yoshitaka’s unique style of Japanese art is admired across the globe.

Sota Watanabe, Grënner a CEO vum Astar Network, sot,

“Without a doubt, Yoshitaka Amano is a legendary artist in the 21st century. I am very honored to be able to work with him and host his first NFT on Astar Network.”

This also marks the beginning of Astar Network’s partnership with Twin Planet to help fine arts professionals mint their digital assets on a trusted and secure network to bring their art to the public. Twin Planet is the talent management firm that represents Yoshitaka Amano and other popular artists.

Amano said,

"Fir d'Leit meng Aarbecht ze gesinn an ze schätzen ass e Bonus. Et mécht mech Loscht nach méi ze zéien. Dat war schonn de Fall, wéi ech e Kand war, an et huet sech zënterhier net geännert.

Astar Network will manage Yoshitaka Amano’s ‘Séissegkeeten Girl‘ artwork, a sensational collection that features 108 angels. The art is young and glamorous, yet sophisticated and appealing to media applications - already inspiring clothing design at ‘Tokyo Girls Collection 2017’ and high fashion at the Mitsukoshi Ginza’s ‘Discover Tokyo’ event.

Astar will build a Web 3.0 entertainment site for the ‘Candy Girl’ collection to take root in its ecosystem and branch to new galleries, entertainment or design. Thus, NFT ownership of fine art will have a direct connection to real-world value through the partnership.

‘Candy Girl’ will lead the way for Japanese content creators to own their art, music and stories but engage with a global audience and business.

Amano’s powerful art has led him to collaborate with over 20 authors, successfully creating illustrated books that have sold millions of copies. Now, the collaboration with both Amano and Twin Planet establishes Astar Network as the blockchain of choice for professional artists to create, auction and exhibit their valuable artwork.

Creating this limited edition NFT collection on Astar is not only important to Japan but also to Astar’s vision to bring the East to the West, fine art to blockchain technology and introduce international leaders to the Web 3.0 world.
