Curio Cards is the First Art NFT project on Ethereum, launched as an online gallery art show on May 9, 2017. Curio used the distributed network Ethereum to create a new model for creation and ownership of digital artwork — a model that allows digital artists to create unique pieces of rare collectible art, get directly paid for their work, and interact with collectors in entirely new ways. Today, this has become an entire field of digital art popularly known as NFTs.
