Deborah Kass works in mixed media, and is most recognized for her paintings, prints, photography, sculptures and neon lighting installations. Kass’s early work mimics and reworks signature styles of iconic male artists of the 20th century including Frank Stella, Andy Warhol, Jackson Pollock, and Ed Ruscha. Kass’s technique of appropriation is a critical commentary on the intersection of social power relations, identity politics, and the historically dominant position of male artists in the art world. Kass’s work is in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art; Whitney Museum of American Art; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum; Jewish Museum; Museum of Fine Art, Boston; Cincinnati Museum of Art; New Orleans Museum; National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institution; Fogg Museum, Harvard Art Museums; and Weatherspoon Museum, among others.
A Kass-ino coin is just like a coin at a casino (ha!). You purchase a Kass-ino coin with money (fiat or crypto) and use the coin to place your bet. Once you purchase a coin(s) they will appear in your slot machine so that you may use them to take a spin.
Once you take a spin, a triptych will be generated. Once the triptych is claimed, the metadata (visual image, description and attributes) of the Kass-ino Coin will be updated to reflect the triptych. Technically, a Kass-ino Coin is an ERC721 token.
The collection includes up to 777 Kass-ino coins. 500 coins will be available for sale. 100 coins will be sold along with special Diamond Deb Sets. The remaining 177 coins will be distributed as rewards, retained by the artist, and given away for promotional purposes.
Each Kass-ino Coin yields 2 spins. After the initial spin, you can claim the generated triptych OR choose to spin again. If you claim the first triptych, the second spin is annulled. Alternatively, if you reject the first triptych and take a second spin, the initial triptych is annulled and the new triptych from the second spin will be automatically claimed.
All players are winners as each spin generates a unique work by Deborah Kass. But it wouldn’t be a Kass-ino without some prizes, and certain triptych combinations carry additional rewards:
1. Triple Debs or Trumps carry a physical print jackpot along with 5 additional Kass-ino Coins!Rewarded Kass-ino Coins should automatically airdrop into your wallet. If you get a Triple-Deb or a Triple-Trump, email us at hello@arsnl.art and we can confirm your jackpot.
Note: You must click CLAIM in order to get the reward. If you choose to pass and spin again, you will not get the reward associated with the triptych you passed on (but you may get lucky with your second spin!).
Approximately 1 out of 5 coins will win a reward.
The Kass-ino Coins will be randomly generated after 1 month from project launch.
