Art Basel Miami Beach brought together artists, technologists, collectors, and cultural infrastructure builders from around the world – and the .ART team was on the ground, contributing to conversations, supporting artists, and connecting with our global community.
Art & Fintech Forum by BitBasel
We joined the Art & Fintech Forum by BitBasel, taking part in a panel titled “The Art Market in a Digital-First World.” Representing .ART and HUG, Elena Zavelev, Head of HUG, and Jeff Sass, CMO of .ART, explored how digital identity, provenance, and infrastructure are reshaping the art market, alongside Denis Belkevich, General Partner at Fuelarts. The conversation focused on practical shifts already happening across collecting, distribution, and cultural value in an increasingly digital ecosystem.
Supporting UNLISTED: Fragments of Being
During Art Basel week, .ART supported UNLISTED, a motion-art exhibition powered by a HUG.art open call and curated by ART&VAULT and artist Farrah Carbonell (farrahcarbonell.art). Sponsored by GREY / VEN and presented with Tezos, the showcase took place on the Venetian Islands in Miami.
Five artists were selected through the open call on HUG.art to present works as part of the exhibition’s theme, Fragments of Being:
They were shown alongside a wider lineup including Evergreen Dazed, Ronen Tanchum (ronentanchum.art), Medina.art, Infinite Mantra, Jenni Pasanen, and others, highlighting the diversity of practices emerging at the intersection of motion art, digital media, and contemporary culture.

Citywide Activations & Community Connections
Beyond the fair, the .ART team took part in citywide activations such as MI AMI, a floating LED exhibition that transformed Miami’s waterways into a moving digital gallery. Among the featured artists was Medina.art, whose work drifted across the Venetian Islands, quite literally bringing digital art into public space.
Throughout the week, we also met with .ART adopters and partners including Artcrush (artcrush.art) and Chazz Gold (chazzgold.art), continuing conversations around creative identity, experimentation, and the evolving tools
