SuperRare Staff Picks, Vol. 3

2 years ago

For volume three of our SuperRare Staff Picks. SuperRare Labs’ Oli Scialdone, Zach Kolodny, and Emilio share their favorites from Kelsey Rolling, Sinclair, Acid Boy, and more. A few gifs, a few videos, a few stills, and one crazy AR piece await you below, finished off with a nice, round point.

Oli Scialdone – Associate Editor

“Jellyfish on Acid” by @acidboy

Acid Boy is one of my favorite artists working in NFTs. This piece particularly is mesmerizing as it engulfs itself over and over again.

— OLI SCIALDONE

— OLI SCIALDONE

“WEALTHCARE” by @kidnimbus

This piece hits somewhere between Picasso and Patrick Nagel, with with traces of early 90s anime OVAs. Psychedelic retrofuturism at its best.

— OLI SCIALDONE

“MIAMI PENTHOUSE” by @iammago

Zach Kolodny – Protocol Engineer

“The AE-1 (SN 3557201)” by @beercandid

“Starry Night Reimagined” by @notoriousgangofone

“Imma Let You Finish” by @sinclair

Emilio – Chief Legal Officer

“CHEMISTRY:_” by @burst_

This work captures the essence of my post-covid paranoia.

— EMILIO

The disinterested, lazy gander of the subject in this macro tells me that something is coming, but that something doesn’t concern me. The work is remarkably subtle and feels like a prescient moment in time.

— EMILIO

“Negative Null” by @neurocolor

“foresight in queue” by @urfatherfigure

“What’s the point?” by @brandonwalsh

This early example of NFT poetry makes a pretty compelling point.

Nick Brown, Director of Engineering

“Negative Null” by @neurocolor

“Negative Null” by @neurocolor

neurocolor’s work is the first I’ve seen that accurately captures my excitement opening foil/holo Magic: The Gathering cards as a kid. Okay fine, in my 20s as well. This piece also feels like you get multiple discrete works in a single NFT, which I love.

— Nick Brown

Jacob Elias, DevOps

Civilizations of an Exoplanet” by @leoisikdogan

I dig the transitions from landscape to landscape.

“Shanghai Tower” by @ontheroofs

Lunar Highway, 2022” by @postwook

Ed Yu – Product Support

“#200” by @animatttic

“#200” by @animatttic

I chose this piece because it’s the genesis piece of @ANIMAtttIC’s Hedron Series and I was captivated by the therapeutically hypnotizing movement in this gif. I love the Hedron Series’ thesis and also for the project’s affordable price entry that welcomes new collectors to collect without the deep pockets.

— Ed Yu

Chris Kokiousis – Brand Copywriter

This week marks the start of a new initiative at SuperRare Labs. Twice a month, members of our team will share some their favorite artworks on the platform. Think of this like the staff picks from your favorite, now shuttered, video rental store. Your glimpse aboard the SuperRare Labs pirate ship.

RareKoko – Director of Product

“A Sky Lilly Recorded” by @garycartlidge

This piece has amazing visual / symbolic density. An exploration that combines elements of Monet’s Water Lilies with the political narrative of Banksy & a contemporary twist on Covid. This piece has everything.

— RareKoko

Incredible historical artifact by a new photographer on SuperRare whose catalogue is bound to be legendary. Leading with a Genesis piece of Curt Cobain should say everything you need to know about what to expect from this collection.

— RareKoko

“Kurt Cobain – Los Angeles, 1993” by @henrydiltz

“adidas for Prada re-source by Zach Lieberman” by @adidasforprada

This collaboration from Adidas x Prada is just the beginning of what will become a seminal year in Cryptoart as cultural trendsetters + major fashion houses begin adopting the medium and exploring its true potential.

— RareKoko

Keegan Ead – Data Analyst

“DS021” by @jsf

“058” by @ericlefaure

Tom Wu – Director of Finance

Where do I start? Methodically drawn with a single consecutive line per frame, the iconic sports moment was captured perfectly and recognizable even without colors. Show this to anyone and they’ll know who it is.

— Tom Wu
