What NFT Artists Can Learn from Sergei Parajanov's Aesthetics?
Decades before the rise of the non-fungible token, the late Soviet artist Sergei Parajanov was experimenting with alternative forms of art and media. His 1967 film "The Colour of Pomegranates" is a prime example of Parajanov's disregard for traditional aesthetics in favor of a more sensory and spiritual approach. Sergei Parajanov is widely considered to be one of the greatest filmmakers of the 20th century. His films are known for their lavish visuals, unconventional narratives, and social commentary.

“In the temple of cinema, there are images, light, and reality. Sergei Parajanov was the master of that temple.” —Jean-Luc Godard.
Parajanov's aesthetic sensibilities have had a lasting influence on cinema and continue to inspire artists to this day. While he only made a handful of films, each one is a masterpiece in its own right.
Parajanov's work anticipated many of the ideas that would later be explored in the field of new media art. His emphasis on sensory experience, for instance, foreshadowed the development of virtual reality and other immersive technologies. Similarly, his interest in exploring alternative forms of expression prefigured the rise of the non-fungible token. With the advent of NFTs, Parajanov's work is now being reimagined for the digital age.

Inspired by the poetry and creativity of André Breton & film director, screenwriter, and artist of Armenian origin Sergei Parajanov, who made seminal contribution to world cinema with his films "Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors" & "The Color of Pomegranates"
What can NFTs artists learn from Parajanov's approach? For one, that art does not have to be constrained by traditional forms or rules. NFTs have the potential to break away from the mold and create new and exciting possibilities for art and expression. Additionally, Parajanov's focus on the senses and the spiritual side of art is something that NFTs should keep in mind as they continue to evolve.
As digital artists increasingly explore the potential of non-fungible tokens (NFTs), the work of late Soviet filmmaker Sergei Parajanov provides a compelling case for how NFTs might be used to create and preserve artworks in the digital age.
A master of the cinematic form, Parajanov was known for his visually lavish and often surreal films, which often incorporated aspects of Armenian folklore and culture. In recent years, his work has been the subject of a number of major retrospectives, and his influence can be seen in the work of contemporary filmmakers like Wes Anderson and Sofia Coppola.
