Why Did Proof Hide The Identity Of Artists Behind Grails III NFT Collection?
Proof through Grails project is known for bringing in renowned artists to create impressive collections. That said, they have made a habit of withholding the names of the artists behind the project until the sales are done. According to Eli Scheinman, head of art at Proof, the objective is to let collectors interact with the artwork without preconceived bias based on the artist’s reputation. This means you get to appreciate the art for what it is not because it comes from a given artist.
As you can tell by the name, this is the third iteration of the mystery NFT collection. The first took place in February of last year, and the second in August.
