In 2009, Jean-Yves Klein was commissioned to artistically design the Gendarmerie in Berlin. In addition to several sculptures, he created “BACCHANAL” – one of the largest wall reliefs in the world. It took six months to complete the 15-meter-long and 6-meter-high wall relief. The result is a unique work of art. This breathtaking masterpiece combines Klein’s creativity with its rich detail and craftsmanship in a stunning way.
In 2023 BACCHANAL will be available as an exclusive NFT edition of only 160 pieces – with each NFT being a unique piece of the edition. The frame of the artwork was expanded with unpublished works by Klein. These drawings and preparatory works were made for the studies on the creation of BACCHANAL. The work is framed, so to speak, by its genesis.
Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of history and become part of the growing community of digital art collectors. Get ready to add the world’s largest relief by Jean-Yves Klein to your collection as an exclusive NFT.
A Marriage of Modern Art with Blockchain
We’re also ushering in a new era of art collecting – every NFT will receive a high-end 75×75 cm photo print behind acrylic glass matt laminated on Aludibond as its analog “twin” and a certificate of authenticity all hand-signed by the artist Jean-Yves Klein. This means that you can not only access and share it via your digital devices but also admire the artwork on your own four walls.
The marriage of real art with NFTs is an innovative concept that combines modern art with cutting-edge blockchain technology to create a unique and valuable asset that collectors can treasure for years to come.
