The series includes 991 unique works of art highlighting Slonem’s famous Neo-Expressionist paintings of wildlife and nature. Each digital artwork comes with the option to use a physical print. In bridging physical and digital art, Notable and Slonem aim to reach a wider audience, from passionate collectors to cryptocurrency-savvy patrons to everyday art enthusiasts.
Zain Talyarkhan, CEO of Notable, said the platform is “the first digital art marketplace created by the art world, for the art world.” A former auction house professional, he conceived Notable to connect traditional artists with the digital realm. A seamless sales process that accepts both fiat and cryptocurrency provides a welcoming environment for Web 3 newcomers and veterans alike.
Hunt Slonem’s prolific career helps push art to new heights. The American artist, whose work is represented in more than 250 major museums and top galleries worldwide, has cultivated a vibrant style defined by repetitive brushstrokes and bold colors. His whimsical motifs of butterflies, tropical birds and especially rabbits have become modern icons.
The notable partnership continues Slonem’s lifelong adventurous artistic spirit. At age 30, he was commissioned to paint a 145-foot-tall mural at the Quintana Roo Pavilion for HemisFair ’68 in San Antonio. And in 2022, Slonem became the first living artist to display a public art exhibition spanning the entire exterior of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
Now Slonem brings that bold spirit to the web3 with collectible digital art linked to tangible framed prints. Supporting this effort is Notable’s user-friendly site, designed to simplify the purchase of art online. Customers can make purchases using dollars or cryptocurrencies in just a few clicks.
Unique in this launch, Notable also provides opportunities for new collectors with limited wall space or crypto-rich patrons. Digital owners can secure physical art prints for later claim once they have space to display their work. This allows buyers to purchase important collections starting today, without waiting for their living conditions to change.
Combined with Notable’s goal to connect artists and audiences through exclusive event access and behind-the-scenes content, the launch of Slonem’s first collection appears poised to usher art connoisseurs into a new era spanning the physical and virtual worlds.
