Art Blocks February Events & Exhibition Update

**Continuum by Lammetje is now live on Art Blocks Studio.** The generative art collection explores connection and movement through: - Connected marks and dots - Layered color compositions - Lines that flow with minimal friction Lammetje's approach focuses on **simple aesthetics** - color, light, and texture - that build into cohesive artworks. Each piece in Continuum features different elements that gradually come together into a unified image. The collection emphasizes **uncontrolled movement** and organic connection between visual elements. Collectors can explore the algorithm's range on the project page to preview the variety of possible outputs before minting.

TRAME has released **INTERPLAY**, a handcrafted backgammon set that combines traditional craftsmanship with generative art. The project is a collaboration with Studio Nada Debs, featuring code developed by Art Blocks 500 artist @annaluciacodes. Each backgammon set features unique, algorithmically-generated designs. - Physical craftsmanship meets digital art - One-of-a-kind patterns created through code - Partnership between TRAME and Studio Nada Debs The project represents a practical application of generative art in physical objects.

**Art Blocks debuts at Art Basel** with a hybrid installation bridging digital and physical art. **The centerpiece:** A monumental 2 x 2.5 meter painting composed of 20 hand-painted panels, inspired by David Hockney's fragmented approach to landscape. **Key concept:** Each panel stands alone, yet together they reveal one of William Pan's generative landscapes - embodying the idea that fragmentation itself becomes a way of seeing. The series exists in dual form: - Digital generative landscapes - Physical painted works This marks a significant moment where on-chain generative art meets traditional art world presentation at one of the industry's most prestigious venues.

**Prohibition**, the art platform on Arbitrum, is highlighting its **Pro11** - the first 11 projects that launched on the platform before the AB500 release. The platform has grown significantly since its inception: - Started with 11 pioneering projects - Now features over **300 artists** - All collections are discoverable through Art Blocks Prohibition brought accessible art creation to the Arbitrum network, establishing itself as a key platform for on-chain generative art. The Pro11 projects represent the foundation of what has become a substantial creative community. The platform continues to operate as part of the broader Art Blocks ecosystem, offering artists a space to showcase programmable, generative content on Arbitrum's layer-2 network.

**Art Blocks 500 artist Kazuhiro Tanimoto is launching Rain Blooms with a dual debut.** The generative art project will premiere at the neort_io gallery in Tokyo on May 15, followed by a release on Art Blocks Studio. Tanimoto, known for his work in the Art Blocks 500 collection, is bringing his latest creation to both physical and digital spaces. **Key Details:** - Physical exhibition at neort_io gallery in Tokyo - Launch date: May 15 - Digital release coming to Art Blocks Studio - Created by Art Blocks 500 artist Kazuhiro Tanimoto The project represents another step in bridging traditional gallery exhibitions with on-chain generative art platforms.
