Did you know that the first known internet meme dates back to 1993? The "Mauve Shirt Guy" photo of a man wearing a purple shirt at a tech conference was captioned and shared online, starting the trend of internet memes. Tech and memes have been intertwined since the beginning of time.
Meme culture and the art movements of expressionism and neo- expressionism share many parallels in their approach to creative expression. Both meme culture and expressionism focus on the use of bold, emotive imagery and a disregard for traditional artistic conventions, while neo-expressionism takes this approach a step further by incorporating elements of modern technology and popular culture. These art movements all reject the idea of objective reality and instead focus on the subjective experiences of the artist and the viewer, creating a sense of relatability and immediacy in their work. This emphasis on personal expression and the blurring of boundaries between high and low art is a defining characteristic of modern art, and can be seen as a continuation of the themes and techniques pioneered by these art movements.
Kim Kardashian broke the internet with her Paper Magazine cover in 2014, where she posed naked and oiled up with the caption "Break the Internet." The cover was a nod to the iconic Jean-Paul Goude photograph of a naked and oiled-up woman from the 1970s, and it quickly went viral. The cover sparked a lot of discussion about the objectification of women in the media and the role of social media in shaping our perceptions of beauty. However, it also cemented Kim Kardashian's status as a pop culture icon and solidified her place in the pantheon of sex symbols. While pop culture has continued to evolve, with new sex symbols emerging all the time, one constant has remained: Rare Pepe's. These internet memes featuring various iterations of a frog-like creature have become a cultural phenomenon, with people collecting and trading them online. They've become an unlikely symbol of internet culture and have even inspired their own economy
As an expressionist artist and member of the decentralization culture, I vow to release four meme cards every year to expand our message and actively contribute to the development of this new decentralized world.
