Arkive

Loved bringing our Art & Athletes activation to life during Art Basel Miami last month. Arkive teamed up with Crossover VC to host an all-star group of athletes & art world leaders for cocktails, bites and great conversation at a stunning waterfront estate.

Some big news on the life front!

Excited to announce that I’m joining the team at Arkive, the world’s first distributed museum curated by a global community. My role will be to launch the Arkive Art Fund as our founding Managing Director.

Throughout my career, I've invested in, worked at or volunteered for countless organizations that have evolved the way communities thrive and interact. Art has always been at the core in some form though creative experiences, technology, and products. Combining my skill sets of community building, investing, curation, and being a conduit, I’m invigorated to expand upon what Arkive has created to bring inspiration and enlightenment to every city in the world.

Arkive has created a community of the most impactful leaders in arts & culture, and we are building one of the most important collections in history, while being continually showcased in public and private spaces.

Unlike traditional museums, Arkive does not confine its collection of tier-one art to a single physical location. On average less than 10% of a museum’s collection is ever seen by the public at any given time, the rest sits in storage. 

Arkive is changing the museum model by 1) becoming the first investible museum - providing patrons the opportunity to own shares in the collection and 2) partnering with public and private spaces globally to showcase the works, with the aim of increasing their visibility, accessibilty, and impact.

Just imagine if you could have invested alongside the Louvre, The Met, or Smithsonian…

The Arkive fund will continue to work through the Arkive community to elevate, educate, and contextualize the significance of all our upcoming acquisitions, while always maintaining our commitment to placing as close to 100% of the works in context on public display.


Over the past year, we have had art works featured at Art Basel Miami, SXSW, Davos, Paris, Milken, Mexico City, Los Angeles with the Getty Foundation, MMCA in Seoul, Korea, Grand Master Records, and the Calgary Central Library.


Really looking forward to working alongside some amazing humans like Thomas McLeod  Emily Slade Vajra Kingsley  Russell A. GLOTFELTY  S. Marco HUSSEN  Sunserae S. Lauren Curbelo Kelly Huang  Jordan Topoleski  Deok Keun Ahn  Aleksander Herforth Rendtslev and the whole Arkive squad.


I’d love to share more of our vision and have you on this journey together, so please do reach out and let’s make some magic happen!

One vote broke the tie.

In our closest decision yet, Josh Kline’s Overtime, 2020 has been selected as Arkive’s 14th acquisition.

Jumping into the world of American artist Josh Kline, this acquisition round challenged hustle culture and the mythology of the American dream with works that provided a critical view of capitalism and technology’s impact on both labor and quality of life. Overtime, 2020 does just that by highlighting a modern work culture where the white collar class look to pharmaceuticals and supplements to fuel their American dream—even at the detriment of their own health and longevity.

Josh Kline’s first U.S. survey will be on view at the Whitney Museum until August 13.

🎉🎂🎉 Celebrating the 1-year anniversary of our 1st acquisition: the ENIAC patent! 🎉🎂🎉

ENIAC stands for Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer, and it was the first general-purpose electronic computer ever made.

Learn more in our gallery: https://lnkd.in/gDadphdm

The ENIAC has:
⚙️ 18,000 vacuum tubes and 7,200 diodes
💻 Increased computing speed by 2,400
🧨 Calculated a ballistics trajectory in seconds

With 188 pages and 60 fold-out diagrams, the patent is one of a kind.

One year ago, the Arkive community voted to select the ENIAC patent as the first acquisition into the collection, with over 150 members coming together for the selection process.

Thanks to all of our members and supporters who have been with us on this journey so far!
