What is the well of creativity in Cryptoart? It is the artists and “The Artists of SuperRare” is a homage to them. The map shows all artists on SupeRare, and how their work is connected. The network was mapped for The New York Times Essay "The Art World Usually Works in Secret. Here’s a Look Inside,” published on 5/7/21.
The nodes on the map correspond to NFTs sold on SuperRare between April 2018 and April 2021, capturing both primary and secondary sales. Each artwork is linked to all art owned by the same collector. The vibrating colors highlight a different group of artists among the top 50 creators - go to art.barabasilab.com/nft/ to identify the individual artists on the map. ©BarabásiLab (Milán Janosov and Albert-László Barabási).
