⎯⎯ The Story

For decades, the finest art lived behind closed doors.

A private viewing. A whispered price. A signature in a ledger no one else could read. Building Culture is the opposite of that room — a public, verifiable way to stand beside a work you believe in.

01

Transparency

Every raffle entry, every sale, every winner — onchain. No hidden draw. You see who entered and who won the painting.

02

Participation

€45 or €70 buys a raffle ticket — not the whole painting. One ticket can win a work worth tens of thousands.

03

Physical art

This is a raffle for a real canvas. The painting stays in vault until the last ticket sells — then one winner receives the physical artwork.

04

Culture, not speculation

We fund art, not derivatives. Hold it in your home — not in a spreadsheet. No casino. No hype.

05

The story remains

Most tickets do not win — that is the raffle. Every entry is still recorded onchain as proof you took part in Edition 01.

⎯⎯ Edition 01

Two museum-scale paintings. Two onchain raffles. One verifiable winner takes the canvas.

Each work is a raffle: buy a ticket for a chance to win the physical painting. When all 1,000 tickets sell, randomness picks one holder — insured shipping to the winner's wall.

⎯⎯ Edition 01

The Works.

Two raffles for two physical paintings. Read each work — then enter for your chance to win the canvas.

The artist

Eduard Angeli

Vienna

Angeli paints silence the way others paint sound — architecture dissolved into atmosphere, memory held at the edge of a horizon that may never arrive.

Why this work matters

In an age of noise, Angeli offers the rarest luxury: stillness you can inhabit. This work does not perform for a room — it recalibrates it.

Before the world decides to speak, there is this: an island, a light, and a silence so complete it feels architectural — as if the air itself were holding its breath.

Santo Spirito floats in a haze that is not picturesque distance but psychological distance — the kind you measure when you wake before anyone else and the room still carries yesterday.

Pastel on linen gives the surface a powdery tenderness, as if the painting could be lifted away by a single honest wind. Forms are present, yet they refuse to dominate. They wait.

One light — neither theatrical nor sentimental — holds the composition the way a sustained note holds silence. You step closer. The horizon does not sharpen. It deepens.

You are not viewing a landscape. You are standing inside a threshold — alone at dawn, between what was and what has not yet been named.

“Stand here long enough and the horizon stops being a line. It becomes a question.”

Before the raffle closes

Before ownership, there is only presence. A square metre of linen holding an island, a light, and the quiet conviction that beauty need not announce itself to be absolute.

How you can win the painting

This is a raffle for the physical painting. One thousand tickets at €45 — one ticket wins the canvas when the edition sells out. Verifiable randomness, public winner, insured delivery of the real work.

You are entering a raffle, not buying the painting outright. One winner receives Santo Spirito on their wall. Every other ticket holder stays in the onchain record of a cultural moment that happened in public.

⎯⎯ Culture should not live behind closed doors.

For decades, the finest works were acquired in rooms most people never entered. Building Culture opens the door — without diminishing the art, the artist, or the seriousness of ownership.

The artist

Hubert Scheibl

Austria

Scheibl does not depict emotion — he enacts it. Layer upon layer until the canvas becomes weather, nerve, and aftermath.

Why this work matters

Scheibl occupies a rare territory between abstraction and raw human charge. Museum-scale, unapologetic — it does not ask for approval, only your full attention.

Some paintings hang on walls. This one arrives — a front moving in, the last frame of a film you are not ready to leave, nicotine and silver light still burning in the air.

Oil moves differently here. It drags, smears, lifts and falls in ridges that catch light like fractured glass. Scheibl works the surface until it behaves less like an image and more like a body under pressure.

Nicotine on Silverscreen is not a title but an atmosphere — cinema’s silvered flicker, the chemical calm after intensity, the colour left behind when something burned beautifully.

You cannot view it from a safe distance. It pulls at the periphery of vision. Violet into ash, ember into void — as if the canvas were still deciding what it wanted to become when the artist finally stepped away.

There is violence in it — not the cheap kind, but the violence of feeling too much and surviving. Of memory that will not settle. Of beauty that refuses to be polite.

“You feel it before you understand it. That is how you know it is real.”

Before the raffle closes

Before the final ticket, the painting exists in suspension — insured, climate-controlled, alive with a tension only a crowd can complete.

How you can win the painting

This is a raffle for the physical painting. One thousand tickets at €70 — one winner takes Nicotine on Silverscreen home when the last ticket sells. One draw. One canvas. Fully documented on Base.

Most tickets will not win the artwork — that is how a raffle works. What every participant shares is proof they entered: timestamped, public, and tied to a museum-scale work that only one wall will hold.

⎯⎯ Why Building Culture

We're not selling JPEGs.

Building Culture is a bridge — between the hand of an artist working pastel or oil onto linen, and a community that funds, witnesses, and ultimately holds the work.

Angeli and Scheibl are paid through each edition. Participants enter a raffle for the physical work — not a speculative token. One winner receives the painting. The chain shows every entry and the final draw.

"Culture should be participatory, not extractive."

⎯⎯ Community

Collectors, artists, witnesses — one wall of culture.

Community wall

“First time I've stood inside a painting I helped bring into the world.”

— lia.eth

“Watching the edition fill in real time — strangely moving.”

— 0xC0…2af

“Two raffle tickets — double the chance someone in my family wins the canvas.”
