24 HOURS OF ART: Tuesday Highlights
Digital Art Headlines, Market Highlights, and Analysis from 6/10 - 6/11
Doomed Pursuit
The Doomed DAO completes a massive pursuit, acquires ‘The Doomed (red)’ /10 by XCOPY as the final piece to a full set of ‘The Doomed’.
Via The Doomed DAO:
“On the two-year anniversary of the 100/100 ‘The Doomed’ release, XCOPY minted three additional variants: [red /10, black & green /6, black & red /15] creating what we call today a full set (four artworks, including the 100/100 edition)…
Building this full set took immense effort from both the founders and members of the DAO. It was a year-long hunt and a hell of a journey.”
Hobbs Scene
Hivemind announces the private acquisition of ‘Harbor Scene #2 (After John Henry Twachtman)’ by Tyler Hobbs. It is one of three unique 1/1 works created for Vol. 6 of Remembrance of Things Future, a Cactoid Labs x LACMA initiative.
Via Hivemind:
“We are thrilled that Hobbs’ first collaboration with a museum can deepen the story we are building around his groundbreaking artistic practice, as well as generative art’s increasingly vital role in the contemporary art landscape.”
Via Tyler Hobbs:
“I'm so pleased to have you as collectors and supporters of my work. This is a really special work to me, so it's great to see it go into good hands!”
A ‘Fidenza’ /999 (Tyler Hobbs’ Art Blocks Collection) also sells on the day for 34 ETH.
