ACTZ

An open call to emerging artists on Tezos

Every month, ACTZ commissions 20 artists to create original 1/1 artworks and mint them as NFTs on the Tezos blockchain. Artists can submit their portfolio through monthly open calls. Selected artists are asked to mint their creations then list them via auction with a 50 XTZ reserve. ACTZ curators place the opening bid and promote the auction on social media. Each month, special guest curators are invited to participate. Curators receive funding to place auction bids, and if successful, the artwork is added to their collection.

Theme:
The Theme for March is Album Cover

Music can be deeply personal or shared with millions, and with it comes the visual component—the album sleeve. The diverse approaches to showcasing an artist or capturing an album’s mood have created iconic images that burn into our memories. Recreate one of your favorites, or design an original cover for music that matters to you. Show us what the music looks like.

Artwork:
Commissioned art MUST be new work, that has not been minted or sold before. Final artwork should be minted as a 1/1 (single edition) NFT on the tezos blockchain.

Deadlines:
As some mediums can take longer to produce than others deadlines are flexible, however, we would prefer the artwork to be completed within 1 month of being commissioned.

Gallery:
The selected artists will be featured in the ACTZ Gallery on objkt.com. Minting instructions will be provided.
