# Art Blocks
> Art Blocks is the premier on-chain generative art platform. Artists deploy generative algorithms directly to the Ethereum blockchain; each mint produces a unique, algorithmically-determined artwork whose visual output is computed at mint time from the transaction hash. artblocks.io is the official marketplace, editorial publication, and community hub for discovering, collecting, and learning about on-chain generative art.
Collections are organized into four verticals: **Curated** (flagship, juried by the Art Blocks curatorial team), **Studio** (artist-owned projects with lighter-touch curation), **Collaborations** (co-productions with partner organizations), and **Engine** (a white-label platform enabling external organizations to launch their own generative art projects).
Tokens are identified by chain, contract address, and token ID. The platform is multi-chain: Ethereum mainnet, Arbitrum, and Base are all supported. Token media is generated live by re-executing the artist's on-chain script with the original mint transaction hash — no static image is stored server-side.
Art Blocks ships an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that gives AI assistants structured access to on-chain data and transaction-building tools: querying the catalog, inspecting tokens and wallets, checking minter configuration and allowlist eligibility, building unsigned purchase transactions, and scaffolding new generative art projects. See the AI Agent Integration section below.
