The Collection of Peggy and David Rockefeller
A grandson of John D. Rockefeller, who was widely considered as the wealthiest American of all time and the richest person in modern history, Peggy and David have continued their family’s long legacy of philanthropy through fundraising for charities and donating their art collection to the MoMA.
In the spring of 2018, all estate proceeds from the sales of their vast collection were given to benefit selected charities that Peggy and David supported in their lifetime.
“Eventually all these objects which have brought so much pleasure to Peggy and me will go out into the world and will again be available to other caretakers who, hopefully, will derive the same satisfaction and joy from them as we have” — David Rockefeller

ARTBLOC’s objective is to sponsor the art market through a fractionalized ownership sale method — so that the joy of seeing artworks is shared and expanded with more audiences. ARTBLOC is an Art-Blockchain project that utilizes the sale of an artwork’s fractionalized ownership, selling its possession by dividing 1/n titles per piece.
The company is offering two latest artworks of David Hockney, each sold at just $8 USD/per piece! Link to purchase: https://artbloc.io/david_hockney
