Idriss B. Hosted a Polyverse Art NFT Concert
Artist Idriss B. hosted a Special Polyverse Art NFT Concert at Nebula Nightclub in NYC on February 16th . Tyga kicked off the night with a performance that had the crowd on their feet, followed by Busta Rhymes and his sidekick Spliff. Ja Rule closed out the show with a stage of women dancing with him…
Idriss B. had a lot to celebrate this week since Patrons of Park Avenue (POPA) announced its inaugural art installation on Park Avenue in the Murray Hill neighborhood of New York City with world-renowned artist, Idriss B. himself. The artist's iconic polygonal shaped animal sculptures now inhabit Park Avenue, including Rexor the Tyrannosaurus Rex, Manny the Mammoth, Baloo the Bear, and Mojo the Gorilla, along 34th to 38th Street.
Born and raised outside Paris, France, Idriss B. has shown an interest in art since childhood. With decades worth of experience helping to create retail and window displays for luxury brands such as Dior, Moncler, Coach, & Michael Kors, Idriss B. launched his unique artistic collection of origami-polygonal shaped animal sculptures in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and now, New York City.
"One of the most beautiful places in the world is New York and it is the perfect place for me to exhibit my work. It is a hardworking city with a warm family environment, so it is very fitting for people to see and feel the strength of my pieces while bringing the fun to everybody, especially the kids," said Idriss B.
In bringing his artwork to New York City, Idriss B. has collaborated with POPA, which supports the care, maintenance, and planting of the malls of Park Avenue in the Murray Hill neighborhood of New York City, and NYC Parks.
The artist is not only doing it big in real life such as his expos in Dubai and now in Park Avenue, he is also into digital and launched his own NFT collection .NFT are a digital asset that links ownership to unique physical or digital items such as art, music, real estate, or videos.
His NFT, the Polyverse Art, are no ordinary NFTs. Not only are they designed by a real-life artist but being an owner of one of the NFTs has the chance to win an exclusive giveaway to become an astronaut and win a ticket into space!
