Reviewing Digital Art in 3Q 2025—thefunnyguys, Conrad House & Peter Bauman

Описание: In this Le Random third quarter round-up, editor in chief Peter Bauman sits down with thefunnyguys (Le Random co-founder & CEO) and Conrad House (collection lead) to reflect on the biggest shifts in digital art this past quarter.

They discuss how Toledo Museum of Art’s Infinite Images exhibition signaled a new era of institutional support for digital art and how MoMA’s debut of Sasha Stiles’s A LIVING POEM brought art and emerging technologies into a major museum lobby. They debate the fallout from Christie’s restructuring its digital art department, share insights on the launch of Raster, thefunnyguys' new artist-profile aggregator and marketplace, and dive deep into the rise of the Solana Avant scene on VVV, including Parker Ito’s and Biscuit’s schizocollage aesthetic and what the shift represents.

Plus market sentiment, favorites of the quarter and much, much more.
