Diamonds are Forever, and So is Great Art: Diamond Exhibition Drops April 27

PROOF is a platform that is focused on creating unique experiences for collectors to connect with artists to own and champion their art. As the blockchain has the potential to usher in a digital art renaissance, Proof is dedicated to ensuring that the focus is on the people and not just the numbers.

The Diamond Exhibition is a testament to this commitment, as Proof has carefully curated a group of 22 amazing artists to feature in this inaugural collection. The artists were selected based on their unique styles, perspectives, and stories, and they represent a wide range of creative fields, from photography to generative art.

Among the artists featured in the Diamond Exhibition are Dirty Robot, Summer Wagner, Terrell Jones, and Mindzeye, all of whom bring a distinct and captivating vision to their work. Additionally, the exhibition features the talents of 0xdgb, Linda Dounia, Gossamer Rozen, and tiffatron, all of whom explore themes of identity, emotion, and the human condition through their art.

The exhibition also includes work from Justin Mezzell, the artist behind the Moonbirds collection, as well as Beeple, who made art history when his piece ‘Everydays: The First 5000 Days’ sold for $69 million at a Christie’s auction in 2021. The generative art space is well-represented in the collection as well, with artists like Andrew Mitchell, Carlos Marcial, and Eric De Giuli showcasing their skills in this area.

With the Diamond Exhibition, Proof is pivoting quickly and taking a bold step forward in the digital art space. The market’s response to these 22 artists is critical, as it will determine the future of the platform and the broader digital art community. But with such a diverse and talented group of artists on display, it’s hard not to be cautiously optimistic about what the future holds.
