24 HOURS OF ART: Wednesday Highlights
Digital Art Headlines, Market Highlights, and Analysis from 11/19 - 11/20
All Eyes on Joe Pease
‘everything vs nothing’ by Joe Pease with Glitch Gallery captivates in auction count down.
The 1/1/30 video artwork collection totals 91 ETH in current bids with a 12:00pm ET conclusion around the corner. ‘closer’ has the current high bid of 10.8 ETH.
Via Joe Pease:
“thirty video artworks
forever connected
to a 1/1 video artwork that will never be minted”
Autoglyph Alert
‘Autoglyphs’ 1/1/512 by Larva Labs sees more activity as ‘Autoglyph #210’ sells for 90 WETH ($280,276). It was originally minted and collected on April 8, 2019 for 0.2 ETH ($36).
Yatreda’s Throne
‘Fertility Throne’ by Yatreda sells for $42,000 USD to Fred A.
Part of the five artwork ‘Abyssinian Queen’ collection, it directly follows Yatreda’s sale to The Toledo Museum of Art. Three artworks have now been acquired, with a fourth destined for Christie’s auction.
Via Fred A:
“To me, Yatreda has masterfully woven the rich history of her people into a contemporary context, all while mastering impeccable aesthetics. She has also created a medium uniquely suited to our space—not quite photography, nor video, but a living, vibrant time capsule. Her early success was unsurprising given the uniqueness of her art, but what’s truly remarkable is how she has managed to grow, maintain consistency, and preserve cohesion without ever repeating herself or succumbing to the temptation of taking the easy path. I believe we’re only at the beginning of what promises to be a very interesting journey.”
Via Yatreda:
“I want to thank Fred for his friendship, his patronage as a collector, and the valuable wisdom he has shared with us over the years as a gallery owner and member of Fellowship.”
Fried’s Silkscreens
‘Outer Reaches’ by Jake Fried with Noble Gallery completes its mint of 30 digital + signed, numbered, and framed prints. Each sells for $2,500, totaling $75,000.
Via Jake Fried:
“It was special for me to work on a silkscreen print for the first time, and exciting to embrace the unique qualities the medium offered. I see Outer Reaches in conversation with my other recent nft/prints (textured UV pigment, lenticular), each exploring unique ways of translating and complimenting my digital animations in physical form. The push and pull between ink-on-paper and pixels-on-screen is fundamental to understanding and appreciating my work.”
Via Matt Szczur (part of Noble Gallery):
“A lot of hard work and love went into this one. Really happy to see this!”
