When I first fell down the crypto art rabbit hole, I found this epic list by obxium to be really useful.

Want to go deep into the first year of SuperRare art metrics? I knew you would, check out this medium article and amazingly detailed paper by HEX0x6C.
In 2019 I launched XERO gallery, displaying a collection of crypto art in the VR world of CryptoVoxels. All artwork was donated by artists and offered for sale with 0 reserve.

Visit XERO gallery in your browser here (currently closed for renovations).
