A couple of days ago there was an interesting article in MarketWatch.com about artists that are making real money for artwork that was created online and then sold for big money.
Apparently the artwork is being created online and then it is transferred to canvas to be sold at very steep prices ($10,000 each). Interestingly, Second Life, has held art auctions to sell real world paintings, while "real world" galleries have sold artworks based on online creations.
A couple of upcoming events will further define this digital form of artwork as an industry that is here to stay.
The Museum of Modern Art in New York City is staging an exhibition beginning this month entitled "Design and the Elastic Mind." It will include all sorts of representations of modernity and the future based on innovation. MOMA says the art derives from "designers' ability to grasp momentous changes in technology, science and social mores."
ZERO1, a digital arts festival, will host its second event in San Jose in June and other stagings are held the world over from Berlin to Beijing. Art News notes that The Walker Art Center in Minneapolis and New York's Museum of Contemporary Art are building collections.

3Dwalkthroughs.com believes that a lot of the new artwork that is created is going to be a result of photo applications such as Flickr and Microsoft's Photosynth. We have posted about Photosynth in the past and it is worth checking out the Microsoft website to learn more about this cool technology.
