24 Hours of Art: February 11, 2025

Gourmet Xposure

Two XCOPY editions headline the day:

'E X P O S U R E' /25 sells for 16.99 ETH from NFTButler_s1w1t, just 8 days after the collector acquired the January, 2020 KnownOrigin edition for 10.83 WETH.

'GOURMET SPICY' /24 sells for 10.69 ETH from FrontRuntheMoMA, marking the second sale this year for the March, 2022 Nifty Gateway edition (Jan 3rd: 14 ETH).

Collection: CENTS

A day after the sad news surrounding Rutherford Chang's passing, his last collection 'CENTS' continues to receive attention.

The 1/1/10k with Sovrn Art sees 70 sales for 0.633 BTC, with its lowest list at 0.0074 BTC.

Modest Acquisition

Work-In-Progress acquires 'ΔЯᄃΉłⱴΞ' by Modest for 5 ETH.

It is a "timeline" of 10 artworks created throughout the past year, each curated by the collector.

Via Work-In-Progress:
"I'm as excited about this as I was with Mortal and [Lost Robbie]...

I’m a big believer in giving love back  to the space and to artists like Modest who are less well known... While the artist behind Modest has been around for some time m0dest is still relatively under the radar."

RD Report


AI has the microphone. Whether it is the recent Christie's auction controversy or yesterday's 'AI Action Summit' with Fellowship in Paris, conversations and debate rage on.

As we well know, the digital art market is an attention economy. alignDRAW, Infinite Images, and DeepBlack fittingly led the volume category.

Line items elsewhere remain sparse, although a Winds of Yawanawa Flower did change hands for the trait's lowest ETH mark in months.
