Artmarket.com: CIHA 2024 Lyon – France, Artprice committed sponsor of the 36th world congress representing more than 50 countries and 1000 speakers specializing in Art History research
PARIS, Feb. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Since 1873, the CIHA (Comité International d’Histoire de l’Art) congress has taken place every four years, like the “Art History Olympiad”. The only global event in this field, it allows researchers and professionals from the world of art and heritage to come together to exchange and debate current issues. This will be a major event for France in 2024, ranking among the most important events of the year such as the Paris Olympics.
This year, the French Committee for the History of Art (CFHA) was chosen to organize it. The International Congress of Art History will be held at the Convention Center of the Cité Internationale de Lyon from June 23 to 28, 2024: https://www.cihalyon2024.fr/en/

thierry Ehrmann, President of Artmarket.com and Founder of Artprice: “It is clear that Artprice’s sponsorship of this global event, which will be pivotal for France and its international cultural policy, is significant. With over 50 countries and 1000 speakers participating, particularly in this Olympic Games year of 2024, the event holds immense importance. This exceptional event focusing on the History of Art, held once every four years, underscores France’s resurgence, as it reclaims, according to Artprice, its position as the leading European hub in the Art Market.”
The theme chosen for the 36th edition is “Matter Materiality”. This theme concerns all artistic productions from all periods of art history. Their materiality poses problems of perception, conservation, or reproduction.
This theme allows us to question the effects of dematerialization due to digital technology, but also the material dimension of digital technology such as the techniques of rematerialization or perception of materiality. It explores very current questions, in full evolution, and in line with major societal, ecological, and ethical challenges.
The congress will address many techniques and categories of material objects, from painting to print, from architectural techniques to the use of waste, from the human body to clothing, and more, as detailed in the online program ( in progress): https://openagenda.com/en/ciha-2024
Olivier Bonfait, President of the French Committee for Art History (CFHA), organizer of CIHA 2024: “Coming to this international congress in Lyon means participating in a great celebration of knowledge in Art History, being present at one of those events that (almost) never happen. The last CIHA congress in France took place in… 1989. We are working intensively to make this exceptional event a success. And Artprice’s sponsorship carries its full meaning in this edition.”
Nearly 1,000 participants from more than 50 countries will speak during the congress. There will be a program of plenary conferences with the greatest specialists and world-renowned artists where they will talk about their approach to the subject. Artprice and the Organe Museum of Contemporary Art will participate in workshops in the form of collaborative knowledge-sharing sessions. In the evening, discussions will continue during events organized with partner museums and foundations.
A special evening will be organized at the world headquarters of Artprice by Artmarket, in the heart of the Organe Museum of Contemporary Art managing La Demeure du Chaos / Abode of Chaos (dixit The New York Times), including a visit to its unique in the world historical documentary collection dating from 1700 to the present day. In addition, a meeting will be scheduled between the CIHA researchers, Artprice department experts and its founding President.
Visits to Lyon’s heritage sites and the Auvergne Rhône-Alpes region will also be offered on the final day of the congress, Friday, June 28, 2024. Throughout the event, an Art Book Fair will offer the opportunity to meet authors, and French and international publishers, where Artprice by Artmarket will be present.
The congress is supported by a prestigious honorary committee chaired by Nobel Prize in Literature laureate Orhan Pamuk. It is also placed under the patronage of the French government and benefits from the support of municipal and regional stakeholders.
The organizers paid particular attention to ensuring that all participants could come to Lyon from all over the world, whatever the difficulties linked to their economic or geopolitical context. Grants were awarded by foundations and patrons: Gerda Henkel Stiftung (Düsseldorf), Deutsches Forum Für Kunstgeschichte (Paris), Fundación Proa (Buenos Aires), Getty Foundation (Los Angeles), Fondation Tiqitaq (France), Italian Cultural Institute de Lyon, Samuel H. Kress Foundation (New York), Wu Zuoren International Foundation of Fine Arts (Beijing). Despite this generous support, needs are not yet fully covered.

It also has the support of major institutions: the National Center for Scientific Research, the National Institute of Art History, the École du Louvre, the University Lumière Lyon 2, the École Nationale Supérieure de Lyon and the University of Grenoble Alpes.

Grexie Signchain Launches on November 1st, 2024: Enabling Smart Contract Developers to Bring Off-Chain Data On-Chain with Seamless Gas-Paid Signing
Grexie Signchain enables developers to sign off-chain data into smart contracts, with self-hosted or secure vault signer wallet management.
MANCHESTER, England, Oct. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Grexie Limited proudly announces the launch of its innovative smart contract solution, Signchain, on November 1st, 2024. Designed specifically for developers, Signchain introduces a powerful way to bring off-chain data on-chain through user-paid gas fees and secure signing of data into smart contract methods using its extendable smart contract, Signable.
In the growing landscape of blockchain technology, securely managing off-chain data and integrating it into on-chain smart contracts has posed significant challenges for developers. Signchain eliminates these hurdles by offering a robust, gas-efficient system for signing and authenticating data in real-time.
Key Features of Signchain:
1. Seamless Off-Chain to On-Chain Data Integration
Signchain enables developers to securely bring off-chain data on-chain by signing it directly into smart contract methods through user-paid gas fees. This integration ensures that data authenticity is preserved, and its entry into the blockchain remains tamper-proof, streamlining processes for industries relying on real-world data verification. Signchain also supports integration with Google Sheets, AWS, and Firebase, making it easy to pull data from popular off-chain data sources.
2. Extendable Smart Contract – Signable
The core of Signchain’s technology is its extendable smart contract, Signable, which allows developers to customize and build upon existing smart contracts. With Signable, developers can easily implement contract signatures for any data type, offering flexibility across industries from finance to logistics and beyond.
3. Signer Wallet Management
Signchain offers comprehensive signer wallet management as part of its service, empowering developers to manage and authenticate signers effectively. Wallets can either be self-hosted using Signchain’s Docker container for those who prefer their own infrastructure, or they can leverage Signchain’s network of secure vaults for maximum security.
4. Self-Hosted or Managed Service
For developers who want full control of their infrastructure, Signchain provides a self-hosted option via Docker containers, allowing them to deploy the platform on their own servers. Alternatively, developers can opt to use Signchain’s secure vault network, offering a hassle-free solution with enterprise-grade security and wallet management.
5. User-Paid Gas Fees
By integrating a user-paid gas fee model, Signchain allows users to cover the costs of signing and authenticating their data, ensuring the signing process is efficient and doesn’t overburden developers with additional expenses. This makes Signchain an ideal solution for dApps and platforms handling high transaction volumes.
6. Google Sheets, AWS, Firebase Integration with Serverless Model
Signchain supports integration with Google Sheets, AWS, and Firebase in a serverless model, powered by a hosted Sign In With Ethereum (SIWE) implementation provided by Signchain’s API. Developers can simply connect their Google Sheets and configure the contract parameters associated with each column. Signchain will automatically look up the user’s wallet address in the spreadsheet, sign the transaction data, and execute it in the blockchain along with any user-supplied parameters. This creates an easy, efficient way to manage data inputs from off-chain sources without heavy infrastructure setup.
Revolutionizing Smart Contract Workflows
With Signchain, developers now have the tools to handle the complexities of integrating off-chain data into smart contracts. The extendable nature of Signable offers flexibility, allowing developers to cater to various use cases, whether it’s automating financial transactions, supply chain data, or verifying legal agreements.
Tim Behrsin, CEO of Grexie Limited, said, “Signchain is more than just a signing solution—it’s a platform that empowers developers to securely integrate off-chain data into their smart contracts with minimal effort. The flexibility of Signable and our focus on signer wallet management offers developers control and security at every stage of the process.”
Why Signchain Matters
Signchain addresses critical challenges faced by developers, particularly those dealing with off-chain data. By signing data into smart contracts and enabling user-paid gas fees, the platform significantly reduces friction in managing secure, scalable smart contracts. Whether developers need to manage high volumes of data transactions or create bespoke smart contracts, Signchain offers a scalable and secure solution.
In industries like DeFi, real estate, and supply chain management, data integrity and security are paramount. Signchain’s secure vault network and customizable signing workflows allow businesses to handle sensitive information with confidence.
Launch Event and Future Developments
The official launch of Signchain will take place on November 1st, 2024, alongside a virtual event. The event will showcase live demonstrations of Signable, with detailed walkthroughs of the Docker-based self-hosted solution and signer wallet management features. Attendees will also get an exclusive preview of future enhancements, including multi-signature workflows and advanced blockchain network integrations.
About Signchain
Signchain is a cutting-edge platform developed by Grexie Limited, based in Manchester, Cheshire, United Kingdom. Signchain simplifies smart contract development by offering a secure, scalable, and customizable solution for signing and authenticating off-chain data on-chain. Developers can either self-host the solution using Signchain’s Docker container or rely on the network’s secure vault infrastructure. With an emphasis on security, flexibility, and developer experience, Signchain is set to transform how smart contracts handle off-chain data.
