Weekly wisdom from #MediciMinutes for 1/1 artists. 🙏🏾 @CozomoMedici . This is important advice. Artists benefit tremendously from tiered markets. A combination of 1/1s and editions, which allows them to "evangelize a crowd" & to create liquidity in their markets. ⚔️🤺 🔥

@LACMA @HollisGoodall7 🧵(2/5). A bit of info on Hokusai for you all in advance of todays space:. Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849) was a Japanese artist known for his mastery of woodblock printing. Hokusai's prints often depict natural landscapes, everyday life, and mythical creatures.
