The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) recently unveiled an exciting venture, the MoMA Postcard project, which is minted on the Tezos blockchain. Presented by MoMA and powered by Autonomy Wallet, this unique endeavor celebrates collaborative creativity. It features 15 co-created postcards, each a product of collaboration among 15 artists, representing 15 distinct destinations.

The @Tezos Twitter account directed enthusiasts to view this collection on Objkt.com. Additionally, details on how one can get involved, design, and share their own postcard are available at moma.org/postcard. The account expressed their thoughts stating:


“Congratulations to all the artists and welcome to newcomers minting on Tezos.”

The @Tezos account on Twitter

The roster of participating artists includes notable names such as @GrantYun2, @petereburr, @ykxotkx, @dmitricherniak, @lovidlovid, and ten others. Several of these artists provided prompts around which their postcards were designed. For instance, @dmitricherniak encouraged each participant to create a goose avatar in “Mango-Grayscale-Dada,” while @GrantYun2‘s prompt was about embracing nature in “Hazel-Gradient-Symmetry.”

MoMA further detailed the essence of this project. It’s described as an “experiment in collective creativity on blockchain,” likened to a digital chain letter. Every postcard is a result of joint efforts, designed collaboratively as it transitions from one destination to the next. Each card comes with 15 blank stamps awaiting designs by its co-creators, turning every postcard into an engaging blockchain journey.

The underlying intention is to offer a platform where individuals can explore NFTs and blockchain technology in an approachable, inventive manner. MoMA hopes this initiative will “inspire connections and conversations within the world of digital art.”

Highlighting the special collection launched for this project, MoMA shared that they invited 15 artists, pioneers at the crossroads of art and technology, to craft their unique sets of cards. Starting with a blank card, every artist introduced a prompt, and these cards were circulated among all participants. Each card metamorphosed around its prompt, collecting unique stamps as it journeyed globally. Once a stamp was verified on the blockchain, it became a symbol of ownership for that card. This process birthed a collection of cards that are co-created and co-owned simultaneously.

Covering 35 cities, spanning 11 countries and 5 continents, the “MoMA Postcard First 15” stands as a testament to boundary-less collaborative creativity, where every component is as distinct as it is integral to the collective.
