SuperRare Primary Network

Witness a revolution, an art market emerging in front of our eyes. “SuperRare Primary Network” captures the evolution of the primary market behind SuperRare, as described in The New York Times Essay "The Art World Usually Works in Secret. Here’s a Look Inside,” published on 5/7/21. The nodes of the map are artworks sold on SuperRare between April 2018 and April 2021, shown in the order in which the NFTs were minted. Each artwork is linked to all art owned by the same collector. Colors highlight the works purchased by the top 20 collectors on the primary market - see tags for the list of highlighted collectors. Go to art.barabasilab.com/nft/ to identify the individual artworks, artists, and collectors on the map. ©BarabásiLab (Milán Janosov and Albert-László Barabási).
