What is ATG

Art Tokyo Global (ATG) is an Art Exhibition, Film Production, and Digital Art Company headquartered in Singapore, with wholly-owned subsidiaries in Tokyo, Japan, and Shanghai, China.

ATG runs Asia’s largest art exhibition events, including Art Fair Tokyo, Art Stage Osaka, ArtKYOTO, and Daimaru Matsuya National Art Exhibition Tour. It is also active in Film Creative, Production, and Distribution of NFT Art Films. In July 2022, ATG completed the production of the World’s first NFT 70-minute Art Film – "SHIP" which will have a global launch within the year. In addition, ATG has developed its Future Art Tokyo (FAT) Collection Platform offering a digital art production and NFT marketplace for emerging artists in Asia. By 2023, the Company expects to have 2,000+ talented Asian artists in its FAT Collection and extend its platform to other emerging artists from Singapore and ASEAN countries.

Leveraging vast experience in the art scene, ATG has integrated Art, Films, and Technologies to break new ground and offer new and unique experiences for art lovers. The goal is to build the largest global platform for Asian artists and art lovers.

ATG sets out to be the world's leading platform that bridges art between the real world, and blockchain. With an abundance of artists under their roster, ATG migrates their artists to the blockchain, either with pre-existing artwork that they have done in real life ("phygital"), or creating never-before-seen artwork for their to-be-launched NFT collections.

Art Tokyo Global (ATG) looks towards not only bringing the art of their artists to the world through blockchain, but also to establish a two-way bridge, enabling Web 3.0 native artists to have a chance to have their works brought to life in real-world art exhibitions and fairs through the various events done by ATG, i.e. Art Fair Tokyo, Art Stage Osaka, ArtKYOTO, and Daimaru Matsuya National Art Exhibition Tour.

Art Tokyo Global Pte Ltd (ATG) and Shanghai Film Co., Ltd (SFC) have also jointly announced a strategic partnership to develop a variety of businesses, including digital collectibles centered on the World's first NFT Art Film, "SHIP" using Web 3.0 Technology, Metaverse, and other advanced technologies.

Blockchain How-Tos

All projects are hosted on the Ethereum(Ξ) network.

Enter and view a project site while connected to Metamask. If you do not already have Metamask installed, visit https://metamask.io/ to install the extension in your browser.

Once you're connected, you'll see a purchase button for each project in their respective project pages.

When you click the purchase button, you should see a Metamask window pop-up for you to approve the purchase transaction. It will show the price for the mint as well as the estimated gas/transaction fees for executing the purchase. Click "Confirm" to proceed with your purchase.

After the purchase is confirmed you will should receive your NFT shortly. It is represented on the Ethereum network by a token which is a standard ERC721A*-compatible NFT token, and will instantly be able to see it in your account on various marketplace platforms like OpenSea.

*Compared to ERC-721, ERC-721A offers significant gas savings when minting multiple NFTs simultaneously. It will be possible to mint multiple NFTs for the same gas price as minting a single NFT with the ERC-721A contract.

Note: If the Ethereum blockchain is backlogged and your token takes too long to mint, you might not be able to see the token image upon minting it. The token will only appear in your "my items" page once the purchase is confirmed.
