<div data-mce-fragment="1" dir="ltr">The visual representation of the JONAS LUND TOKEN has taken different shapes and forms since its inauguration on March 21, 2018. JONAS LUND TOKEN (JLT) is a distributed decentralized autonomous artistic practice that aims to optimize and streamline the decision-making process in art production and the strategic decisions concerning Lund’s career path. The JLT shareholders participate in the decision-making process by casting votes on proposals and through discussions on the JLT website. As the career path of Lund improves and his market value increases, so does the value of a JLT, thus allowing board members to profit through dividends and potential sales of the tokens.</div>

JONAS LUND | JONAS LUND TOKEN COLLECTIBLES

<p>UNTITLED (2021) is a series of JONAS LUND'S networked paintings. Each work in the series evaluates its own performance and likability, quantifying data through in-depth network analysis. This information can then be accessed by near-field communication, offering the viewer meta-data on the painting and some additional abstracted information through a popup window appearing on his/her phone when approaching the painting. Through this technology, the viewer is provided with an alternative narrative to the works, bestowing a presence that exists beyond our own physical world.</p>
<p>The formalization of these painting’s aesthetics is also the result of this data analysis, with each tablet a mosaic of artworks that have experienced success at auction. From such, Lund presents landscapes that are expressionist and vibrant, where visual information is remixed and juxtaposed to such a degree that only small traces of the previous lives it once lived are visible.</p>

The Swedish artist Jonas Lund has been concerned with the emergence of values and the distribution of power in the art market since 2012. He creates his works with the help of algorithms and viewers, who, for example, have voting rights in decisions affecting his art and career as owners of the JONAS LUND TOKEN (2018). He talks to Anika Meier about the emergence of values, changes in the art market, and the benefits of NFTs. And why do animals play an important role in his JONAS LUND TOKEN universe?
