New York\u2013based photographer and filmmaker Anna Condo<\/a> describes flowers as her \u201cultimate muse.\u201d That relationship is certainly evident in her latest role, as curator of our new NFT show, \u201cFlower Gang,<\/a>\u201d which examines the special relationship between humans and nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comprising more than 100 NFTs by a plethora of digital artists working in the fields of dance, music, photography, illustration and painting, the exhibition harnesses the visual, emotional and conceptual power of botanical imagery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI wanted a giant bouquet of creatives, not only to showcase the scope of contemporary talent that\u2019s out there but also for viewers to see how strong this subject matter is,\u201d Condo says. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Tulip<\/a>
Tulip Mania<\/em>, 2021, by Anna Condo<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Condo\u2019s own \u201cFlower Gang\u201d work is a photographic still life of a red and blue tulip set before a hand-painted background. True to her signature style, the image, titled Tulip Mania<\/a><\/em>, captures the bloom at close range, focusing on its textural complexities and intricate petal formation. Unusually, the photo is shot from above, which lends the composition a 3D quality, as if the flower head is bursting out of the picture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt almost looks like it\u2019s coming out of the metaverse that empowers the flower. There\u2019s no Photoshop, no tinting, and while the realism is evident, the flower is a sort of abstraction. It\u2019s coming at you, confronting you, yet it remains ethereal and mysterious,\u201d explains Condo, who has been photographing flowers exclusively for nearly a decade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI work with Zeze, in Manhattan, arguably the best florist in the city, who provides me with flowers on a weekly basis,\u201d she says. There\u2019s a reason she seeks perfection. The intimate levels of detail captured in her intensely chromatic images endow the flowers with a preternatural power that places them beyond the real and the organic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI truly believe flowers have unique personalities,” Condo states. “They aren’t delicate. They are resilient and strong. They have a soul and a spirit. They reveal a range of possibilities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given her deep connection to her subject matter and her belief that the mind is boundless in its potential, crypto art felt like a natural area for Condo to explore. Last year, she ventured into this digital world for the first time with \u201cTulip 1637,\u201d a series of NFTs made in collaboration with an anonymous group of \u201ccypherpunks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI’d never looked into NFTs before, but it just felt like such a perfect fit,\u201d says Condo, referring to the series of hyperreal photographs, each showing a different stem against a vibrant monochromatic background. Visually, the collection is an incisive reflection on the brevity and beauty of life; digitally, the manner in which the images are minted in the cryptoverse evokes the culture of exclusivity, authenticity and prestige once associated with the still-life tradition of Western art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each image from \u201cTulip 1637\u201d (the title alludes to the financial bubble, known as \u201ctulip mania,” that rocked 17th-century Holland) is encrypted within blockchain technology by assigning it a unique address, or \u201cframe,\u201d that relates to Condo\u2019s signature. In layman\u2019s terms, finding this custom frame or signature in the metaverse is a bit like finding a needle in a haystack or, worse still, a needle in a needle stack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere are two unique technical aspects to Anna Condo\u2019s \u2018Tulip 1637\u2019 project,\u201d Tim Whidden, 1stDibs\u2019 vice president of engineering and head of the NFT team, says of the complex process behind this intricate validation process. \u201cThe first is that the \u2018Tulip 1637\u2019 token smart contract has a specific address on Ethereum, which corresponds to Anna Condo’s name: 0xa1111ac011d00888DD91751A4b98769862213cf5. You can see that the address starts with the signature 0xa1111ac011d0, which relates to 0xANNACONDO. The second is that to mint each tulip requires a proof of work. And this proof of work gets harder to achieve after each mint of a tulip until, after tulip 16, it would take more than a year to find it, depending on the computer hardware doing the work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Condo believes NFTs are revolutionizing the art world but insists that they do not clash with or undermine traditional modes of expression. Instead, she sees them as an extension of this language. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Very Peri<\/em>, 2022, by Diana Rubi<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m not a generative artist, so what are the chances of a photographer entering the perfect marriage of technology and art?\u201d she says of this ground-breaking experiment, which marks the first time an NFT has been encrypted with an artist\u2019s signature, adding to its inimitable status in the Ethereum ecosystem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a proof of authorship, and that is something I find fascinating. I don\u2019t understand every technical aspect of the mining process, but that is not so important to me. I don’t need to understand every nuance of a Fellini film, but I completely believe in the artistic and human authenticity that\u2019s conveyed in the work.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for the \u201cFlower Gang\u201d exhibition, Condo embraced her curatorial role with enthusiasm. \u201cWe human beings tend to complain about what we lack. One thing we do have is an abundance of flowers,\u201d she explains. \u201cI wanted to do justice to the generosity of nature with as many artistic expressions as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among her favorite inclusions are Belgian artist Wim Van Cappellen<\/a>\u2019s A flower and a rock<\/em><\/a><\/em>, a photographic portrait of his mother holding a flower, and New Yorker Calla Kessler\u2019s Cherry Pink<\/a><\/em> photograph, of a behatted woman all in pink with her back turned to the camera, admiring a cherry tree. \u201cIt\u2019s so atmospheric! To me, it looks like a Hitchcock film,\u201d Condo says of the latter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Florametry<\/em>, 2019, by Irina Angles<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The show also contains several choreographic pieces, because Condo is a big supporter of the NFT dance community. One such entry is an evocative performance called Florametry<\/a><\/em> by Ukrainian dancer Irina Angles<\/a>. The art of verse is explored by Colombian author Ana Maria Caballero<\/a>, who composed a poignant poem in the form of an MP4 called The Names of Flowers<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Madeline Cass<\/a> created a flower-themed GIF<\/a> with a distinctly vintage feel. \u201cHer work brings back memories of Super 8 films and old nature shows that had flowers blossoming in staggered time lapses,\u201d Condo says. \u201cSo you see, every piece has its own unique message, and with flowers unlocking deep emotions, stories and hopes for the future.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

claret cup cactus<\/em> ,2022, by Madeline Cass<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Condo\u2019s sentiment is echoed by Chicago-based photographer Summer Wagner<\/a>, whose portrait of a man wearing a crown of flowers, Prairie Dream, Prince of Spring<\/a><\/em>, has iconographic overtones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I have been deeply inspired by the Illinois prairies since I moved here, in 2019,\u201d Wagner says. \u201cThe prairie holds an incredible amount of biodiversity, including the beautiful multicolored flowers adorning the subject pictured. The picture contains, to me, a dual story line: one of a strong yet gentle prince and the other a delicate yet wild prairie scape. Together, these elements challenge the notions we project onto ourselves and our world through gender binaries.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The oft-perceived conflict between technology and the natural world is broached by Canadian Felix Denomme, whose artwork Wallflower \u2014 Form Study<\/a><\/em> portrays the bleached-out silhouette of a flower stem superimposed on a black-and-white hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am interested in my perceived detachment from the natural world in day-to-day life. I believe being unable to escape technology for such a long period of time has left me feeling artificial,\u201d Denomme explains. \u201cExploring the visual similarities between the human form and flowers is a comforting reminder for me that we are both products of the natural world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Condo has a more succinct but no less powerful way of describing her relationship with her subjects: \u201cMy images are pretty raw. I set up the shot and let the flower tell me what it wants to say.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n

Alexandra Zagalsky is a London-based journalist specializing in luxury topics, art and travel content. She began her journalistic career in Paris, where she worked on a cultural guide for English-speaking expats. Her first big break was an interview with Lionel Poil\u00e2ne, the late, venerable baker from Paris\u2019s Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e9s district who popularized the two-kilogram sourdough loaf and once made a bread chandelier for Salvador Dal\u00ed<\/a>.

Zagalsky moved back to London in her early 20s and has since worked with a number of august publications, including the Week<\/em>, the Telegraph<\/em>, the Times<\/em> and a variety of art and design outlets, such as Introspective<\/em><\/a> and V&A<\/em>, Sotheby\u2019s<\/em> and Christie\u2019s<\/em> magazines. She studied fine art and the history of art at Goldsmiths, University of London, and continues to explore the contemporary art scene, including the world of NFTs.

She has written extensively on the subject of vintage watches<\/a> and describes the Cartier<\/a> Crash as her favorite timepiece. \u201cIt\u2019s a great emblem of the Swinging Sixties and an adaptation of the house\u2019s classic Baignoire<\/a> Allong\u00e9e wristwatch, its sinuous Daliesque style apparently inspired by a model brought into the London Cartier workshop that had been distorted in a car crash,\u201d she says. \u201cI love it for all sorts of reasons, not least because it\u2019s so unconventional and daring, as all great design objects often are.\u201d
