incredibly excited and proud to announce my first ever solo show later this month at the offline gallery in NYC!! it's risky and nerve wracking to try something new but when i receive a vision, i must pay my respect to it and embrace it fully. 8 months ago i began developing a new body of work, a departure from my signature style, uncharted territory. i truly believe i tapped into something special that needed further exploration, so i did... it's all culminating in a solo show in new york, along with auctions on superrare. big thanks to @anloremi and the sr team for believing in my vision from a very early stage. expect a lot more in-depth content about the series in the coming weeks leading up to the exhibition, exciting stuff! 🖤

ANNOUNCEMENT: THE ART BLOCKS 500 5 years. 500 projects. @artblocks_io readies for five upcoming projects, scheduled to conclude at number 500 in November 2025, in line with their 5 year anniversary. 2 Curated releases and 3 community-focused Explorations will celebrate this era of on-chain generative art. The foundational 500 will be preserved as a finite set, giving way to new generative art approaches that build on the first era. Stay tuned. Details and initiatives are incoming.

Top of the morning! ☀️☕️ After beginning as 5, then 6, days per week, 24 Hours of Art started its “Everyday” era on December 15, 2023. That means we have published 600 consecutive reports. Day 1 energy is intact.

Big announcement from @artblocks_io tomorrow! Join @RogerDickerman and I as we unpack everything on the DAM Show. 🤝

🖼️ 24 HOURS OF ART 📊 August 5, 2025 💀 skullXposed 'Ashen As Adam' by @SamSpratt sells for $410,000 USDC to @randomcdog's overXposed collection from @lowkey_ventures via @gondixyz. It is an all-time high for the 1/1/50 Skull of Luci collection, exceeding June's $360,000 USDC sale of 'Foreshadow'. Jediwolf thanks @redbeardnft and @eli_schein for facilitating and @batsoupyum for sparking the passion.‍ Via Jediwolf: "Collectors - and only collectors - know this feeling... when you love the art so much and after a long wait it finally 'happens'. That strange perfect blend - part euphoria, part disbelief - a moment when you merge with the art and the artist. Unity and beauty." Via Sam Spratt: "It's been beautiful from afar watching over the years Jedi move from distant bits of connection to curiosity to list making to eco-system breakdown charts recently getting a Mask, and now to this. An incredibly rewarding feeling comes from having support from deeply curious, persistent, and vocal translators as patrons. Go into the many corners of this space and you'll find few that embody that triad more than Jedi. Thank you to Lowkey for being a beautiful steward of the Skull and continuing to support the largest reserve of Masks." ✊ Memetic Circuitry 'The Memes by @punk6529' continue to surge, seeing 419 sales for 83.42 ETH, with current list for the 389 artwork collection now at 0.053 ETH.

The 1/1 artwork is described as "a biblical commission to be updated upon completion of the work".‍ Via Alpha Centauri Kid: "normally i don't take on commissions but when Michael approached me with this particular idea, it struck a deep chord. I saw a glimpse immediately and felt compelled by the chance to honor the great masters of old, those who often had no choice but to paint great biblical scenes." Via Michael: "I didn't think you would accept honestly haha, but if you don't ask you never know." 🪟 Pictured: Highlights - 'NakamotoFreedom' by 6529er - 'Ashen As Adam' by Sam Spratt - 'The Expulsion from Heaven' by Alpha Centauri Kid - 'Checks 54' by @jackbutcher | @checksvv, collected by @krybharat - '8x8, Set 001, Ed. 40' by @jackbutcher | @opepenedition, collected by OG - 'Chromie Squiggle #7659' by @ArtOnBlockchain, collected by OG - 'Sgt.
