A Paris museum is giving the troubled NFT art scene a big showcase, hoping to bring attention to the new form of digital art and help artists struggling to make a living in the pandemic.

The exhibition, titled "NFT Revolution," features works by 20 artists from around the world, including France, the United States, and Japan. The pieces range from digital paintings to 3D sculptures, all of which have been minted as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on the blockchain.

NFTs are unique digital assets that are verified on the blockchain, making them one-of-a-kind and valuable. They have become increasingly popular in the art world, with some pieces selling for millions of dollars.

However, the NFT art scene has also been plagued by controversy, with some artists accusing it of being a bubble that will eventually burst. Others have criticized the environmental impact of NFTs, as the process of minting them requires a lot of energy.

The Paris museum hopes to address these issues by showcasing the works of talented artists who are using NFTs in innovative ways. The exhibition also includes talks and workshops on the topic, giving visitors a chance to learn more about the technology behind NFTs and how they are changing the art world.

"We want to show that NFTs are not just a fad, but a new way of creating and selling art," said the museum's director. "We hope this exhibition will help artists who are struggling to make a living in the pandemic, and also bring attention to the environmental issues surrounding NFTs."

The "NFT Revolution" exhibition runs from July 1 to August 31 at the Paris museum. Tickets can be purchased online or at the door.
