Ode to the hot dog: Humble king of street food. Not pretending to be what you're not. Elongated sausage in a narrow bun. Simplicity. Human nature. Family unity. The sun is beating down on the stadium and my team is losing, but what does it matter when I have you? Tourist trap. I paid $20 for you in Times Square and let me tell you, you left a lot to be desired, but the memory of being ripped off for a sausage will stay with me forever. I should have gone to Nathan's. We love you as much in your food form as we do in your dog form. Invented in Europe, made into a rock star in the States. A bite of pleasure, with extra mustard please. I hope someone loves me as much as Joey Chestnut loves you.
📝 Key Points of Suite 23
→ Every 23rd day for 23 months I will present a new piece, in a sketchy style inspired mainly by Dali's "Lithographs of the Pantagruelian Excesses" and a bit of Picasso's "Vollard Suite". → These pieces will be available for sale at 0.023 ETH and there will only be 23 editions. → The time window for minting is one day. If a piece does not sell out, it will go on sale again on the 23rd of the following month. So, a new piece + any remaining pieces from previous months will be available every 23rd from 8am EDT until 8am the following day. → In total, there will be 23 pieces to collect. Anyone who manages to collect all of them or the majority of them, in a ranking of acquired pieces, will receive a very special collector's item, which is detailed below. 📖 The ultimate goal of the project is to create a physical book, which I will design and create myself, to serve as a compilation of all the pieces and accrediting the collectors of each piece along with the entire story of the project. ❗ But here's the important part: there will only be 23 copies of the book. And I will destroy the original file so that it will never be reprinted. Never again. Only 23 copies will exist in the world (so I'll try to keep a copy of every artwork myself, otherwise I won't be able to print a copy of the book for me). Like everything else, this could be relevant or not. As I grow as an artist, owning one of the 23 copies of the book could be something. These 23 copies will go to: 1 - Automatically to whoever gets all 23 editions of Suite 23. (+ a framed piece of their choice) 2 - As it may be difficult to obtain all 23 editions, the remaining copies of the book will go to those who have the most pieces from Suite 23, in order of ranking listed below.
