Closing Thoughts
Strong doses of grail editions - two Beeple’s and an XCOPY - plus Art Blocks activity. Art Blocks comes not only with the top end usual suspects but the more accessible Cargo and Fontana collections. The latter were driven by a very active Bob Loukas, making his presence felt in multiple places, including within Damien Hirst - The Currency.
Sotheby’s closes today and 3 big ones begin today: AOTM (open for 3 days), MoMA Postcards, and SuperRare x Matt Kane.
Onward!
