Welcome to the Old Master Meme Gallery - The launchpad for IRL artists
Connecting world-famous artists with modern technology and sharing the vision with the real world to help liberate artists and bring IRL utility to the blockchain.
The Old Master Meme Gallery emitted 946 Old Master Meme (OMM) NFTs that are themselves high-quality digital art.
Each Old Master Meme NFT is a unique piece of modern art, programmatically generated from 2,721,600 possible variants and weighted by rarity for each trait. It is programmatically ensured that there are no duplicates.
Each OMM NFT is an access token giving access to all upcoming artists drops.
We are an innovative tech company based in Germany. Our team are all experts in the field and have had many accomplishments; we are also fully doxxed and you can learn a little about the team.
The beautiful OMM collection
The OMM collection contain 946 animated NFT portraits inspired by Old Master paintings and memes.
These digital collectables are completely unique pieces of digital art. Each individual piece has randomized traits with different rarities.
Please have a look at our FAQ section to get more information.
The Old Master Meme Background
Artworks need a place, a room to be exhibited to an interested audience. Museums like the Louvre are exhibiting meaningful artworks to the public in a pre-defined space curated by the best curators in the world with the intention to make art publicly available and to educate the visitors. The selected art is almost always settled and well-known but almost never digital.
Galleries are creating a connection with their "collectors". The curator of a gallery knows what kind of art the collectors prefer and brings a suitable kind of art to the gallery which in turn attracts more collectors.
The Old Master Meme Gallery makes IRL artwork available on the blockchain as NFTs and by that to the members, the holder of the Old Master Meme NFT, but also to bring them to the upcoming, and possibly most accessible exhibition space yet: the Metaverse.
We will buy land in MetaVerses like Decentraland, Sandbox, SPACE and REALM. On this land, we create our Gallery: The OMMG “Louvre”. The artists that launches on OMMG will be exhibited in our Galleries on the different MetaVerses.
Each artist joining us for a drop on the blockchain will donate some of their NFTs to the OMMG NFT treasury. This pool is the basis for our exhibitions and later for the staking solution, we create to reward being a holder of OMM NFTs. By being a holder of an OMM NFT you will also have preferential access to all upcoming art drops made within OMMG.
The OMMG Cycle
We wanted to find a way for NFT holders to display their NFT’s and for galleries to do the same with fully interactive 3D abilities.
We found that many traditional artists had not yet made the transition into the NFT community and neither had many galleries or museums.
The unleash.art project developed the Nifty Eyes hardware product, that allows NFT holders, museums and galleries to do exactly that. A product that will display your NFT in 3D and allow some kind of interaction.
Our aim is to help artists join the blockchain space utilising our code for free, then exhibit the upcoming artwork in our MetaGalleries and eventually sell our hardware to IRL galleries and museums all around the world, add NFTs to our NFT treasury and reward our holders.
Not only will we be launching artists and our hardware, but we also plan to have a MetaGallery, IRL Gallery AND create a DAO where holders vote on which IRL artists and NFT blue chips we should invest in and display in our galleries and add to our NFT token pool.
The base for all this is the Old Master Meme Gallery which emitted OMM NFTs as access tokens. Both projects, unleash.art and OMMG, and their teams will now be united to create a new experience IRL and on the blockchain.
- 1. Onboard IRL artists onto the blockchain
- 2. Exhibit their art in our galleries in the Metaverses
- 3. Provide early access to the art and distribute rewards to OMM NFT holders
- 4. Exhibit digital art in real-world galleries and make it experienceable
First artist launched
Our first artist launched on OMMG was Adam Riches. We are proud to get the change bringing his artowrks to the blockchain through. Adam is very well known with over 320,000 followers and many celebrity buyers IRL. We are thrilled to have him with us and very excited to work alongside him.
10 of his collection are special pieces with signatures. These are part of the treasury of the OMMG DAOand will be used to raise the treasury's value.
Adam Riches Genesis contains 405 unique pieces of art.
Second artist launched
Barbara Johanna Billeiter, also known under her artist’s name as "Duckylemon", is a surrealist painter from Franconia in Germany and is proud of two reports about her in the art magazine "Niji", issue 2016/05, 2020/07 and of an exclusive interview in the NY Glamour Magazine.
Her genesis collection only contains 150 unique pieces of her surrealistic and detailed hand-drawn artwork that are assembled and launched on OMMG.
Nifty Eyes - IRL art experience
The Nifty Eyes is an extraordinary and sophisticated 3D interactive picture frame to unveil the full potential of each OMMG NFT. With the Nifty Eyes, each supported NFT can become alive like the picture paintings in "Harry Potter". If you are far away you can see their eyes looking at you. If you come closer, the character becomes fully alive in 3D and the scene is played.
