“Dora Maar’s portraits are one of the most important series of works in Pablo Picasso’s oeuvre. “Tête d’une femme n°5”, created in 1939-1942, shows the depth of Picasso’s investigation into the soul of his muse, Dora Maar, through the lens of Cubism. Every element of this work, from the fragmented form to the vibrant color palette, serves as a story, offering insight into Maar’s identity and her influence on Picasso’s work. The painting is a testament to how art can penetrate deeply into the essence of human emotions, challenge our perceptions and invite us to look beyond the surface.

Picasso, Dalì and Banksy as NFTs: 10101.art uses blockchain technology
10101.art uses blockchain technology and legal frameworks to create a collective ownership system for valuable works of art such as those by Picasso, Dalì and Banksy.
Through blockchain technology, 10101.art essentially facilitates the collective ownership of iconic paintings by famous artists. This new innovative approach allows individuals to own shares of original works of art that would otherwise be beyond their reach in the traditional market.
In this way, the platform sees the opportunity to do so increasing accessibility and participation in the art market, something that was often limited in the past. In honor of the launch therefore visitors can own pieces by Warhol and Banksy as part of an exclusive pre-sale event NFT.
About this, Alina KrotCEO of 10101.art, stated the following:
“We believe the time has come for a more welcoming approach to art ownership. 10101.art uses technology and collaboration to create a richer experience for everyone. This event marks an important step in this journey and we would like all industry leaders and art lovers to join us in shaping the future of art collecting.”
