Marc Andreessen praised Atelier Missor, a sculpture studio selling bronze Prometheus busts (priced around $14,000), calling it a great use of "newly acquired magic internet money" and encouragement for techno-optimist artists. The studio also makes Napoleon and Joan of Arc monuments. The endorsement gives the e/acc-themed studio an unexpected spotlight.
