RD Report

What a day for mendezmendez. It might sound silly, but sometimes you can feel kinetic energy of the social hivemind rallying around someone or something. A leap for an artist relentlessly focused on his craft. A sight to behold for a new body of work, sometimes a notion that feels risky.

It was heartbreaking to witness traffic crash the site down the stretch and affect two handfuls of auctions. In the aftermath, you do the best you can. Mendezmendez handled it like a true pro, expressing regret for his collectors. SuperRare said no excuses and waived their fees. Collectors got busy on secondary, putting in collection offers and making gestures of their own. Here is IanIV re-opening a secondary auction with intention to send profits to mendezmendez.

Onward. Have an inspired weekend! I'll be drawing a strong dose from one of my favorite artists and humans having a moment, likely not his last.
