“$69 million? I think it probably means that digital art is here to stay.” — Beeple
Every day for 14 and a half years, the artist Mike Winkelmann (A.K.A. Beeple) created a digital artwork and posted it online. The first 5,000 days of this project, collected together in a non-fungible token, or NFT, were the first purely digital artwork ever sold at Christie’s. On March 11, 2021, Christie’s sold “Everydays: The First 5000 Days” at auction for $69,346,250. The art world, astonished, rushed to process the significance of this sale. What did it mean for the future of art? What were NFTs and how did they work? Were they to be derided, or celebrated? Now, a year later, NFTs have shifted into the mainstream. To assess the significance of this new medium, Beeple joins investor and collector Glenn Fuhrman for a fascinating conversation on how digital tools, NFTs, the blockchain and crypto are influencing the way art is created — and sold.
