From June 4 to 6, 2026, we're bringing our curatorial perspective to one of the most significant gatherings in the digital art & Web3 ecosystem.

100 collectors is collaborating with NFC to bring the new art program of NFC Summit 2026, taking over the Unicorn Factory Lisboa, a former agro-industrial complex in Beato, for three days dedicated to art, discovery, and the people shaping this movement.

Our role at NFC is what we always try to do: create real encounters between artists and collectors, galleries and the people who follow their work, and exhibitors and the partners who can help them grow. The exhibition is designed with a collector focus, from guided discovery, context building, and a curation shaped for people who come to spend time with the works.

The program spans a full building takeover of the Fábrica de Moagem, a historically intact flour mill built in 1897, across four floors of silos, rollers, and preserved industrial machinery. Arab Bank Switzerland, the co-organizer of NFC Summit, is presenting SYSTEMS, an exhibition curated by Nina Roehrs taking over a whole floor exploring how artistic practices engage with algorithmic procedures, generative grids, trained models, and blockchain-based structures, with works from artists including Kim Asendorf, Jack Butcher, Linda Dounia, Andreas Gysin, and Larva Labs.

Two exhibition floors we're helping put together will feature exhibitors including BOTTO, DANAE with Eko33, Vhils, Bryan Brinkman, HASH Gallery, VEXA by Vhils, Cycol Gallery, and more, alongside site-specific installations, large-scale projections, and an immersive basement program scenographed by RNA Studio.

The central plaza opens around a sculptural installation by Dmitri Cherniak: a 3-meter-tall triptych running a continuous generative system. It's where collectors meet, where guided tours begin, and where the experience anchors itself around 4 artist solo shows in 4 custom shipping containers: Efdot and Jiwa presented by Opensea, normies by serc and Cult of Crypto Art.

The side programming include artist-led art brunchs, private vernissages, and a soirée bringing together artists, collectors, and key voices from the ecosystem.
