I’m now starting to organize a F*ck Wall Street cryptoart show that will launch at the end of February-ish in my cryptovoxels museum. I have not finalized the date yet.

I will curate The F*ck Wall Street cryptoart show. What this means is that I’m going to pick the art that will appear in this show. I won’t be including all art that is submitted, so I just wanted to clarify that this show will be different from the FRIDA show, because that was a community show. This one will be a curated show, so don’t get upset if your art is not selected.

About the F*ck Wall Street Art Exhibition

The events of the past few weeks regarding GameStop have made the Elon Musk quote inevitable:

“Whoever controls the memes, controls the universe.”

And as Robert Reich, former Secretary of Labor, put it on Twitter: “If Redditors rallying GameStop is unacceptable market manipulation, what would you call it when greedy Wall Street bankers gambled away our entire economy in 2008 and faced no consequences?”

Is this the French Revolution moment of Wall Street’s history, a sequel to Occupy Wall Street? I think you know the answer.

This art show is dedicated to all the people who were destroyed in the 2008-09 recession as well as all people who have been wiped out during the Covid pandemic and who never got the bailouts that the banks got.

More specifically, this show is dedicated to u/Space-peanut from r/wallstreetbets because it was after reading his story, I decided to create the F*ck Wall Street art show. This story really got to me:

In order to get a better understanding of the GameStop and r/wallstreetbets saga, please watch this video which was made by Roaring Kitty, who was the first true believer in GameStop. He’s the one who poured his $50K life savings into GME stock last summer, before anyone else did.

You will find his intelligence, humor and good spirited nature very entertaining and educational:

Also, this explains it very too: Chamath video:

Here are the artists and art so far in the F*ck Wall Street show:
