Will Online Art Auctions Be 2021’s Hot New Trend in the Art World?

SOUTHFIELD, Mich., Jan. 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Has the global pandemic changed how people are buying art? There is growing evidence to show that art collectors are enthusiastically embracing online auctions as an appealing and safe alternative to purchasing art in-person.

<a…

Park West Gallery was one of the first art dealers to pivot to online auctions during the earliest days of the COVID-19 outbreak. Founded in 1969, Park West is the largest art dealer in the world and they have been holding live-streaming online auctions for their collectors over the past nine months.

«We knew collectors would love our new online experience,» said Park West Gallery Founder and CEO Albert Scaglione. «But what we didn’t anticipate is how quickly that segment of our business would grow.»

Since the start of 2021, Park West has seen record sales and attendance at their online auctions. In fact, over the January 15-17 weekend, the gallery sold 1,559 works of art, the largest number of works that Park West has ever sold during an online auction weekend—breaking their previous record set only two weeks ago on New Year’s weekend when a special three-year-old guest auctioneer brought down the hammer on the record-breaking sale.

«There are many benefits of auctioning art online,» said Scaglione. «One of the biggest benefits is the selection you can offer. When we’re auctioning at an event or on a cruise ship, there is a finite amount of art we can fit into the space. But, when we’re online, the variety of art that we can offer to our clients is simply incredible. And we’re taking advantage of that every week.»

One of the highlights of this past weekend was record-breaking sales from two of Park West’s hottest new artists, Ashton Howard and Jon Rattenbury. Howard is a Florida native who has won critical acclaim for his works of «Fluid Realism»—a technique he invented that captures the light and movement of water in a truly unique fashion. Jon Rattenbury, a popular contemporary artist, is well-known for his «dimensional acrylic» paintings, which give his landscapes an otherworldly level of texture and depth.

The January 15-17 weekend also saw record sales for works by the late great Jean-Claude Picot, the renowned Post-Impressionist who passed away in August 2020.

«We’ve really seen a huge uptick in our online art auctions in 2021,» said Park West Principal Auctioneer Jordan Sitter. «I had a client last weekend who knew us from our cruise auctions who had never attended one of our online auctions before. She saw some of our recent press coverage and decided to attend her first one. She ended up spending over $100,000! Art collectors are really responding to this new format.»

This new surge in online art collecting aligns with 2020 research from Barron’s, the Dow Jones & Company magazine, which noted that the COVID-19 crisis could fundamentally boost online art sales and predicted that the shift to online platforms for art collecting could be «both permanent and transformative.»

About Park West Gallery

Park West Gallery is the world’s largest art dealer, bringing the experience of collecting fine art to more than 3 million customers since 1969. Whether it’s masterpieces from history’s greatest artists or the latest artwork from leading contemporary icons, Park West offers something for everyone through its accessible art exhibitions and auctions all over the world.

U.S. Soy Launches The Pilot Phase Of Sustainably Grown U.S. Soy Mark

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Whatever you make, U.S. Soy makes you more sustainable. That is why the food industry is innovating to improve sustainability in their product supply chains from farm to fork. By labeling soy ingredients with the new Sustainably Grown U.S. Soy mark, you are recognizing that those soybeans originated from a system of continuous environmental improvement.

From January 19 through March 19, the United Soybean Board (USB) is…

From January 19 through March 19, the United Soybean Board (USB) is teaming up with partners from Soylent and DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences that will be participating in a pilot program to market their products and ingredients as being made with Sustainably Grown U.S. Soy.

«DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences is proud to partner with USB and Soylent in developing the Sustainably Grown U.S. Soy mark, which represents the many ways that U.S. growers are working to ensure that U.S. soy sets the global benchmark for sustainable plant protein production,» says Tony Andrew, Protein Solutions Business Unit Leader at DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences.

The new mark denotes agricultural practices, such as no-till and cover crops, that deliver sustainable outcomes in biodiversity, soil carbon, water management, and overall soil conservation. U.S. Soy delivers the food industry a quality ingredient to help them meet their sustainability goals by prioritizing soil health and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and energy usage.

Customers can be assured that products carrying the mark contain soy ingredients that:

Were grown in the United States
Are compliant with all U.S. environmental regulations
Protect highly erodible soils and wetlands
Were grown on family farms with responsible labor practices

«It’s an honor to be one of the first companies to receive the Sustainably Grown U.S. Soy mark. For years, we have created market-leading products rooted in science and sustainability, so it was important to us to be a part of this pilot,» says Demir Vangelov, CEO of Soylent.

Across the U.S., soybean farmers like Belinda Burrier are focused on being good stewards of natural resources and have been utilizing sustainable practices on their farms for years. «It feels good knowing that when I grow this nutrient-dense protein, I am not only helping the food industry feed millions of families across the country sustainably but also contributing to a cleaner planet for the next generation,» said Burrier.

Sustainable ingredients won’t just help food companies and industrial partners to meet their sustainability goals, but their business goals, too as consumer preference for sustainable, U.S. grown products continues to increase. According to USB’s 27^th annual Food Industry Insights survey, when a product is associated with the Sustainably Grown U.S. Soy mark, the majority (nearly 70%) of consumers familiar with sustainable farming said they would be more likely to purchase the product – showing a strong correlation between the mark and consumer sales. The mark also assures customers that soy used in ingredients was grown in the U.S. on family farms with responsible labor practices and is compliant with all U.S. environmental regulations.

After the pilot program, USB anticipates making the mark available to other interested companies. Requests to use the Sustainably Grown U.S. Soy mark will be accepted through a USB managed portal. To participate, the customer will provide an overview of their supply chain which will be reviewed by a third-party auditor. The percentage of soy used by end product will be measured and applied against supply standards on a mass balance basis. The Sustainably Grown U.S. Soy mark is based on a national system of sustainability and conservation laws and regulations and farmer participation in the U.S. Farm Program. It seeks to increase demand for soybeans grown by U.S. farmers that commit to practices such as conservation tillage, cover crops and responsible nutrient management (e.g. right source, right rate, right time, and right place). The Sustainably Grown U.S. Soy mark applies to those soybean acres grown under best practices on-farm.

To learn more about the Sustainably Grown U.S. Soy mark, or interested in applying to use the mark on your own ingredients and products, visit www.sustainableussoymark.com.

About United Soybean Board
United Soybean Board’s 78 volunteer farmer-directors work on behalf of all U.S. soybean farmers to achieve maximum value for their soy checkoff investments. These volunteers invest and leverage checkoff funds in programs and partnerships to drive soybean innovation beyond the bushel and increase preference for U.S. soy. That preference is based on U.S. soybean meal and oil quality and the sustainability of U.S. soybean farmers. As stipulated in the federal Soybean Promotion, Research, and Consumer Information Act, the USDA Agricultural Marketing Service has oversight responsibilities for USB and the soy checkoff.

New Mini-Documentary Showcases the Life-changing Health Improvements of Five Dogs in just 30 days with Wild Earth Diet

NEW YORK, Jan. 19, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Wild Earth, the leading plant-based, superfood brand, today announced the launch of their new mini-documentary, The 30-Day Dog Food Challenge, to inspire pet parents across the country to create a healthier lifestyle for their dogs by changing what they feed them. The Wild Earth mini-documentary follows the true transformation of four lifestyle influencers that have transitioned their dogs to Wild Earth’s revolutionary plant-based food and the life…

The new mini-documentary was developed to spotlight the extraordinary changes and positive effects that dogs can experience with Wild Earth’s plant-based food, as each influencer tracked their dogs’ progress at home, in addition to regular visits to the vet. Within 30 days of eating Wild Earth’s food, the five dogs experienced life changing results including increased energy levels, improved skin conditions, better mobility, overall enhanced digestive health, and much more.

«Low quality food is often the number one factor in a dog’s poor health, just as if a human were to only eat fast food,» said Dr. Ernie Ward, Co-founder and Chief Veterinary Officer of Wild Earth. «Within just 30 days of eating Wild Earth food, we’re thrilled to see the lifelong transformations and the new revitalized lifestyles that these five dogs can now enjoy. We’re confident that the new mini-documentary and The Wild Earth 30-Day Dog Food Challenge will inspire pet parents across the country to consider the life-altering benefits of a plant-based diet for dogs, and also shed light on the stigma that dogs need a meat-based diet to thrive.»

«Since starting The Wild Earth 30-Day Dog Food Challenge, our dogs have experienced drastic results, specifically with their skin allergies and digestive issues which have both completely dissipated,» said Dianne Scott of @ataleof2pitties. «For years, our pit bull Pugsley was covered with rashes and scabs and had uncontrollable itching, which are now all gone. We’ve also seen amazing progress with our second pit bull, Wednesday, whose suffered with digestive issues her entire life. In the past 30 days, Wednesday hasn’t had any issues with vomiting or diarrhea, which she usually would experience at least twice a week.»

«The biggest changes I’ve seen in my German Shepard, Athena, since transitioning her to Wild Earth for The 30-Day Dog Food Challenge, is the drastic improvement in digestion and a new found energy that never existed before,» said Kristie Barker of @kristiebarkerofficial. «When I was feeding Athena generic dog food, she was so lethargic and constantly had messy poops, which I knew wasn’t normal or healthy. When I changed her diet to Wild Earth, it was the first time in so long that I’ve seen her have a solid bowel movement. She’s also had so much more energy, and we’ve been able to turn her dreadful half mile walks into active and regular three miles walks which have been amazing for her health.»

Inspired by the documentary, Wild Earth is calling all dog parents nationwide to kick off the New Year with a healthy resolution for their pet’s diet. Starting on January 1, 2021, The Wild Earth 30-Day Dog Food Challenge will encourage consumers to transition their dogs of all ages to Wild Earth’s plant-based food for 30 days and to track the positive benefits they see.

The contest will offer simple weekly goals and challenges to create habits for a healthier overall lifestyle. To enter the challenge, dog owners can track their dog’s progress on Instagram, participate in daily challenges, and share transformation photos using #WE30DayChallenge to be entered to win weekly prizes from Wild Earth.

Wild Earth is offering a «Starter Kit» package for pet parents that are ready to take on The Wild Earth 30-Day Dog Food Challenge and ensure a healthier, longer life for their pets. For more information, and to purchase the «Starter Kit» package, please visit http://www.wildearth.com/pages/30daychallenge.

Leading Automakers and Technology Companies Advance Blockchain Vehicle Identities that Could Help Buyers Avoid Cars with Incorrect Mileage, Maintenance, or Damage Histories

MUNICH, Germany, Jan. 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — We’ve all heard about rolled-back odometers and flood-damaged vehicles touted in better condition. BMW, Ford, and other transportation and blockchain leaders want to slow these practices by joining forces with an ambitious nonprofit startup developing technology to better track and protect vehicles’ true identities.

The Mobility Open Blockchain Initiative (MOBI)’s member-led Vehicle Identity (VID) II Working Group released the second installment…

The Mobility Open Blockchain Initiative (MOBI)’s member-led Vehicle Identity (VID) II Working Group released the second installment of the industry’s vehicle identity on blockchain.

The VID II Standard leverages the VID I Standard (a vehicle birth certificate) to describe the use of VID in a variety of practical use cases. The two use cases focused on by the working group (WG) are vehicle registration and maintenance traceability. Vehicle registration on blockchain allows formerly disconnected vehicle registration systems between states and countries to connect using a secure, shared, and trusted ledger. Maintenance traceability will provide a tamper-proof history to buyers, regulators, and insurers, therefore reducing vehicle information asymmetry.

«At BMW we strive to create seamless digital solutions. The reference architecture in the VID II standard is a crucial building block in the transformation to a frictionless and trusted mobility ecosystem,» said BMW’s Andre Luckow, Head of Emerging Technologies.

Global mobility leaders, startups, and large technology companies authored the VID II Standard to progress multi-stakeholder, interoperable mobility ecosystems. MOBI’s VID II Working Group is co-chaired by BMW and Ford, with support from Accenture, AWS, AutoData Group, Bosch, Car IQ, DENSO, DMX, Hitachi America, Ltd., Honda, IBM, Kar Auction Services, Luxoft, Quantstamp, Ownum, and USAA.

«A secure digital vehicle identity sets the foundation for a fully automatic network for usage-based transportation services,» said MOBI COO and Co-Founder, Tram Vo. «We expect this network for frictionless transfer of value in the New Economy of Movement to open up trillions of dollars of new opportunities to monetize vehicles, services, data, and infrastructure.»

Additional use cases for VID include supply chain, automotive financing, electric vehicle charging, autonomous vehicle data exchange, and much more. VID II improves asset visibility, creating an anchor for additional use cases, data provenance, and autonomous economic agents.

«Ford believes this research into vehicle identity technology could lead to better ownership experiences,» says Cynthia Flanigan, Director, Vehicle Research and Technology, Ford Research and Advanced Engineering. «We also think this technology could help simplify the purchasing process in the future.»

VID II is a building block to a future with more transparent, efficient, and safer vehicle registration and maintenance. Both the buyer and seller will have a more reliable record that can open up opportunities for increased market value for the seller and an increased sense of security for the buyer. Agencies that process vehicle records will reap the benefits of efficient processing and tracking of records.

MOBI and its members hope that the VID standards, together with other MOBI standards for blockchain applications in mobility, will reduce frictional inefficiencies, improve mobility services, and enable new business models.

About MOBI
MOBI is a nonprofit alliance of many of the world’s largest vehicle manufacturers, along with many startups, NGOs, transit agencies, insurers, toll road providers, smart city leaders, and technology companies working to accelerate adoption and promote standards in blockchain, distributed ledgers, and related technologies.

MOBI is creating simple blockchain-based standards to identify vehicles, people, and businesses in order to securely exchange and monetize data, and pay for mobility services, with the goal of making transportation more efficient, affordable, greener, safer, and less congested. MOBI itself is technology and ledger agnostic. For additional information about joining MOBI, please reach out to Griffin Haskins (griffin@dlt.mobi) or visit www.dlt.mobi.
