Ibrahimovic and Boateng also enter the NFT world

Zlatan Ibrahimovic, the well-known AC Milan striker, recently published a book entitled: “Adrenalina. My untold stories”, he has now decided to turn it into art. 11 works of art, each created by a different artist. The exceptional thing is that these works are digital one-offs, and it’s a real NFT collection by Ibrahimovic.

The official presentation of the IBRANFTCOLLECTION took place on Sunday 27 February at the Milan Triennale.

The collection, as already mentioned, was created in the wake of the recent book written by the Swedish champion. The artists were inspired both by the book’s cover and by some of Ibra’s “commandments” contained in the book.

On the day of the presentation, all 11 artists involved in this exciting project took to the stage at the Triennale to show a preview of their work.

Judging by the interest already shown by the player’s biggest fans, success seems assured.

The works will finally be available for purchase on 22 March and 19 April on Makersplace, the well-known online digital art auction platform for NFTs.

It was decided to split the sale into two tranches, but that’s not all, the exhibition will also be available from 27 February in the Wrong Theory Art District in the OVR.ai metaverse.

The artists who created the works for IBRANFTCOLLECTION are the painters Giovanni Frangi and Federico Guida; Giuseppe Veneziano and Giovanni Motta

From the street scene: Pao and the poet Ivan Tresoldi; cryptoartists Hexeract, Davide Petraroli, rappers HighSnob aka Eskalator and GionnyScandal.

Kevin-Prince Boateng and Valentina Fradegrada’s marriage in the metaverse 

The news is from a few days ago: after a few months of dating Kevin-Prince Boateng, a major football star, decided to propose to martial arts champion Valentina Fradegrada.

The two seem to have fallen in love at first sight.

The marriage proposal had already arrived on 6 December, just four months after their first date! 

Boateng, however, who doesn’t like simple things, decided to propose to his fiancée in a more princely way, booking an entire hotel for the occasion and then declaring his love surrounded by an indescribable amount of roses and red balloons.

That’s not the real news though!

The icing on the cake is that in addition to the wedding ceremony, the two have announced that they will also be organizing a wedding in the Metaverse in order to “share” their most beautiful day with their fans online. 

The bride-to-be announced that she has been working for some time on a big project in the OVR Metaverse, a platform suitable for hosting events.

Valentina therefore already seems to be extremely convinced of this unusual but certainly avant-garde choice!

OVR will allow all the fans to be present, even if not in the true sense of the word, at one of the most important days of this new couple.  

The bride-to-be also added that she has already started work on the limited NFT collection that will allow access to the exclusive event.
