4. [Upcoming Collection] Themes and Variations by Vera Molnár (in collaboration with Martin Grasser) will be released via Sotheby’s.
All these variations around letters resonate in me like music. Even though I stopped playing the piano at the age of 15, music has never left me. I immediately think of Goldberg Variations or Beethoven's Diabelli Variations on a Waltz. That's why I gave the title Theme and Variations to the latest project with the letters N, F, and T that I am working on for my first and only long form generative art project.
Vera Molnar.
This collection is fascinating as Vera is considered a pioneer in the computer art field and is 99 years old.
When: July 26th, 2023 05:00 PM EST
Where: Sotheby’s website.
Editions: 500
Price: Dutch Auction, 20 ETH → 2 ETH
5. Ty Vek’s trilogy hit fxhash last week.
Self, ego
Self, superego
Self, Id
The secondary market has been super active, with over 15,000 Tezos in volume across the three collections. The floor is 55 Tezos.
There is a mystery behind Ty Vek’s identity, as many believe an established artist is behind this account.
Do you know who Ty Vek might be?
Until next time,
