# Nouns x Nifty Gateway - Global arts & culture curated project

![](https://i.imgur.com/pXun604.gif)

**TL;DR - Requesting 30 ETH** to fund the first Nounish curated arts exhibition on Nifty Gateway, aimed at showcasing and proliferating Nouns globally. ⌐◨-◨

With the recent focus on bringing more attention to Nouns by collaborating with creators, as seen in Proposals [181](https://nouns.wtf/vote/181) and [180](https://nouns.wtf/vote/180), we want to showcase Nouns in partnership with [Nifty Gateway](https://www.niftygateway.com/). 

A curated nounish collection of high caliber art from OG contributing artists (presented below) who are ready to celebrate Nouns in all its glory. This will provide another entry point for individuals to the Nouns ecosystem through fine art collecting on the Nifty Gateway platform.

We want to create a recurring exhibition that features custom Nounish pieces created by two artists from each continent, participating in the web3 ecosystem. One established and the other emerging. This will create a unique and limited collection, aligned with the Nouns ethos, allowing a new collective of talent to spread the good of Nouns, globally, through doing what they love.

[Proposal 190](https://nouns.wtf/vote/190) has shown there is high demand to collect Nounish art pieces that are custom and crafted. 3,526 NFTs were minted as an open edition of one historical piece, and now we believe we can create something special that [Nifty Gateway](https://www.niftygateway.com/) collectors will flock to. 

There is also clear evidence of fine-art generating profit and bringing awareness to Nouns in [Brandon Mighty's The Myth of Noun series on SuperRare.](https://superrare.com/series/0xca4607aad52f654cf6357895c397094c077a3236) Which has amassed 16.3 ETH in sales from a single artist's creations alone.

Rather than a one-off open edition mint of a historic piece or using one artist to tell the Nouns story, lets collaborate with many fine artists and give people beautiful Nounish art that they can collect and cherish.

All proceeds from the exhibition will be split 50/50 between the artists and the Nouns treasury. Not only does this provide fair compensation for the artists, but it also has the potential to generate returns for the DAO and further support its mission.

With Nifty Gateway's new exclusive publishers feature, it creates the perfect oppurtunity for Nouns to host a curated fine-art collection. Below are some stats on past Nifty drops, from the original Nifty Gateway Curated drops, to recent drops utilising the select publisher feature:

![](https://i.imgur.com/Xe8iFr2.png)

We already have the storefront set up at [⌐◨-◨.to/ng](https://xn----vpoz1kba.to/ng) and it's ready to fill with beautiful Nounish art. We'll commission two artists from each continent to create one Nounish piece of art each.

![](https://i.imgur.com/woQncKS.png)

 The curated selection ranges from emerging Nounish artists to already established Web3 OG artists, to give opportunity and add high value to the collection. Each drop will have a theme that fits the Nouns ethos. People from around the world, doing what they love, all in the name of Nouns.

Effective marketing of creative proposals is a common concern. We believe that through Nifty Gateway, the curated artists' networks and nouns related socials, we will generate the necessary hype and awareness for this proposal. [Semrush](https://www.semrush.com/analytics/traffic/overview/?q=niftygateway.com&searchType=domain&compareWith=superrare.com:domain%7Cfoundation.app:domain%7Cnouns.wtf:domain) traffic estimates show ~ 668k unique visitors to niftygateway.com over the last 30 days.

As this Nouns fine art collection grows, along with a growing artist roster, the marketing efforts will snowball, thanks to the commitment of our collaborating artists and their collective audience across socials:

With a 50/50 split between the DAO and each artist, this prop has the potential to return the funds requested and then some. 

**Requesting 30 ETH funding:**

- Artwork creation 2 ETH per artist = 24 ETH
- Curation, promo and organisation = 6 ETH

**[Safe multisig](https://app.safe.global/eth:0xE1FAd61975f0D515C2695F654ca9c4031780Ea58/home) signers:**

- mrseaks.eth
- 0xigami.eth
- benbodhi.eth

We expect delivery of the first drop in May/June, allowing each of the artists ample time, while being respectful of the space required to create meaningful work that makes a lasting impression.

Thank you nouners, for your time and consideration.
