Amalgam and contrast

Amalgama means a mixture of contrary or different things, but that at the same time can be stable, homogeneous and strong, in short a fusion that leads to success. With this name and the choice of space, the organizers seek to reflect all the oppositions that coexist in digital art, the new and the old, the physical and the digital, and the contrast of opinions that it has brought. The purpose of Amalgama is to give more recognition to this innovative technology.

Sonny Kirchner: creator of the Misonny Art Festival

Sonny, is a restless and visionary character determined to revolutionize the contemporary art market in Catalonia, as he has already demonstrated with the successive editions of his disruptive event in Girona and Barcelona in the last two years. His festivals always take place in wonderful locations, far from museums and galleries. Kirchner was the first artistic promoter in Catalonia to bring the NFTs and the metaverse to Misonny Art Festival.  In its last edition in Gavá last year, he exhibited, among the work of dozens of international and local artists, a collection of NFTs on the famous work The Kiss, by Klimt, on loan from the Belvedere Museum in Vienna.
