Honored to talk with @LACMA 🖼️🏛️ @CozomoMedici🍷⚔️ about his historic gift to the Museum 🔥🔥🔥

Incredible two days with our @LACMA Digital Leaders in LA visiting the stunning new Geffen Gallery at LACMA, @refikanadol’s amazing @DatalandMuseum , @DanielCanogar, @emmawebstah , Rebecca Allen, Dallas/Bob Price Collection, @SpruthMagers and planning next year!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Beautifully stated-- could not be more thrilled with @mfigge stewarding this important project, one that @cryptocactoid and i have been part of since day one. Excited for this strong chapter to unfold.

🌵❤️ Sharing photos of @halecar2's stunning survey at @SFMOMA, which I was fortunate to see a few weeks back. A revelatory expansive vantage onto Mexican & Dominican life. 🌵❤️A love story captured on camera, intimate & journalistic, whose images I've returned to repeatedly. Had the pleasure of walking through this career milestone w/ the lovely Martina Negro & @cryptocactoid ✨

🌵❤️And some more photos from the Cattelan survey at the Serralves Museum

🌵❤️ I see inspiring exhibitions around the world, but rarely find time to share with others. So today, I'm posting photos of the incredible Maurizio Cattelan survey we saw last summer at the Serralves Museum in Porto. Each room in this gorgeous mansion on their campus was devoted to a singular work by Cattelan. Many of you here know Cattelan’s Comedian (aka The Banana). ✨Beyond this iconic/memetic work, Cattlelan reveals himself throughout his oeuvre to be the quintessential conceptual trickster, political commentator, and above all a highly gifted ruminator on the role of Powers and the Sacred. From death to politics to the Pope. ✨His works are chillingly, even painfully beautiful. I was especially blown away by his recreation of  Sistine Chapel, which I must say, I enjoy more than the original because one can actually get up close and examine the magnificence of each painting. I hope you enjoy!

Drove to Vegas (and right back) for an epic @BoredApeYC community sushi dinner last night! Worth every ounce of the trip to kick it with so many cool folks and make some new friends. Apes are something special. IRL is the alpha 🦍

🌵 ❤️Excellent read -- shifting conversations on digital & time-based media collection /conservation! "For museums, this rate of change poses significant exhibition and conservation challenges, but curators, collectors and acquisition committee members highlight that these are outweighed by the relevance this art has to contemporary daily life." "Accelerating relevance is not the only factor. Work that takes hardly any space at all to store is increasingly attractive to museums bursting at the seams with paintings and sculptures." theartnewspaper.com/2026/04/…

the mad poem-annotating dash took place in 3 batches. first, @collectionist @jeannievu’s LACMA dinner. next, AB setup day. then, Untitled opening, where @JacCourtney @LadyCactoid @mattmedved @artechouse @kdean @jamiegourlay @cryptocactoid Hans Ulrich Obrist took the pen 🙏

Part II of @LadyCactoid's interview with Kiya Tadele of @yatreda is now live! This conversation explores the work they are creating in dialogue with LACMA’s permanent collection for the project Remembrance of Things Future, curated and engineered by @CactoidLabs Learn more ↓ bit.ly/4orapE5

🌵❤️Beyond thrilled to see @yatreda's most important work to date, created in response to a historic object in @LACMA's permanent collection, find its way to the esteemed home of @WAPSHOP_ETH ❤️🌵

🌵❤️Honored to see this stunning work of @yatreda's find its way into such an esteemed collection. Thank you @batsoupyum, for supporting this initiative at @LACMA from inception, acquiring every work in the Rembrance of Things Future series. Thank you as well to @redbeardnft, whose immense passion to steer this project to glorious completion has been pivotal.❤️🌵

ANNOUNCEMENT: Remembrance of Things Future by @yatreda has been fully acquired by collectors @WAPSHOP_ETH and @batsoupyum. The series of artworks, a 16-minute film and triptych set, was conceived in collaboration with @LACMA and @CactoidLabs. They include full resolution NFTS and archivally printed framed photographs. AP acquires Revelation of the Empress for 13 ETH. BatSoupYum acquires the triptych of Path of the Demera, Unearthing the Relic, and Guiding Light for 12 ETH. "When we created this artwork, we had to believe it would all come together in a single shot. We had to believe this story would one day find its rightful homes and be appreciated as intended," begins Yatreda. "Now, it will be stewarded by LACMA, a museum we deeply respect, and with two remarkable collectors that our space deeply respects, AP and BatSoupYum. What a beautiful vision." @LadyCactoid adds commentary on the cross-centuries connection: "Yatreda's stunning films and motion portraits transform a historic Ethiopian thirteenth century bronze cross in LACMA's collection from a static museum object into a living visual narrative, reaffirming how legends endure through modern artisans."

Belief becomes form.
