Jeff Koons, the renowned artist and designer famous for his pop culture-inspired works, has announced the 'Moon Phases' NFT collection. The Moon Phases NFT collection is a reference to the phase "to the moon" commonly used in Web3 culture to refer to a rapid increase in the value of an NFT or cryptocurrency. The NFTs in the Moon Phases collection will be available for purchase on 'Pace Verso,' the online Web3 platform that has worked with Koons in an official capacity since 2021.
The digital artworks in the Moon Phases collection will include renderings of physical artifacts and sculptures created by Koons that are space-bound in an upcoming flight. This lunar flight will occur this summer and will launch from the Kennedy Space Center.
In addition to launching the NFT collection, Pace Verso and Jeff Koons have announced that proceeds from the first NFTs sold will go to 'Doctors Without Borders.'
