Rarite

Eight digital artists from all over the world have combined to build the first extraordinary collection of NFT artworks inspired by rare items with unique stories.

This first rare item NFT collection will be available to mint on Rarite – June 29th and is inspired by the history of Zdzisław Beksiński’s artistic visions and his first computer.

Rare items with unique stories are the best reason to engage people. Let’s tell their stories through a new medium – collection of NFTs carrying digital artworks and a range of additional utilities.

Rarite was all started with a simple question. How to convince people outside the NFT world to take an interest in this space, and at the same time remain attractive to people who are already in the NFT world.

After a lot of brainstorming, the Rarite team came to the conclusion that the best link between these two worlds is a rare item with an extraordinary story – the best reason to engage people, to catch their attention and offer something truly unique and valuable at the same time.

That is why they chose the Apple Macintosh Classic, the first computer owned by amazing artist Zdzisław Beksiński, as the best reason to create the first Rarite collection.

Polish Master of dystopian surrealism, a genius visionary known all over the world, was also a pioneer in the field of computer graphics.

It is worth pointing out that he created his first digital photomontages in the mid 1990s. His Macintosh Classic is an important computer model in the history of computing, which adds an extra dimension to the history of this rare item.

With such an unusual object, Rarite decided to build an extraordinary collection of NFT artworks created by several NFT artists inspired by the history of Zdzisław Beksiński’s artistic visions and his first computer.

To merge the worlds through telling compelling stories sealed in the unique artworks and stored forever in tokens on the Tezos blockchain.

Rarite Goals:

  • Involve people from all over the world to create together an artistic and interesting NFT project.
  • Increase the availability of rare items by offering token-holders additional utilities related to them.

Genesis Drop:

Four steps of each Rarite drop, including the first one:

  • selection of the rare item with unique story.
  • matching a vibrant community around.
  • creation of unique artworks inspired by the story.
  • development of community-oriented utilities.
