Here you have a Greek tragedy of a downward spiral in art, culminating in a work being sold by a horse-era institution, propped up by 100 years of destructive philosophy, confirmed shadow games since the 1940s, recent inflationary money printing, and blatant one-sided activism.
It’s worth stepping back to see the big picture. A shiny new web3 house on the hill then asks new-era artists to conform to the old setting by becoming vehicles to sell even worse garbage, while leaving out the OGs of the scene—ensuring the products can’t outshine the primary idiocracy… or so it might seem at first.
Maybe there is more to it all. Something even those directly involved are not even considering to be a thing. This “full circle” above refers to how seemingly progressive ideas are actually about selling the future in a desperate attempt to save the past, and control the present.
Much like printing money at the expense of future generations, the fiat era of money is still in full swing in art. The Great Contemporary Art Bubble was a revelation when I first saw it at the start of my career in art in 2008.
