57 2010, a massive survey of the global art scene, resulted in a digital desk calendar and Visionaire’s first-ever electric issue, sponsored, appropriately, by Smart to celebrate its new electric car. Featuring 365 artworks chosen by fifty-two curators (one for each week of the year), 2010 boasted more content than any other Visionaire issue — as well as one special bonus. For Tom Sachs’s artwork, landing on October 1, the artist submitted a billboard for his own website. Readers who visited the site on that day and entered their name were sent a personalized Klein tool bag containing a limited-run Tom Sachs lighter, playing cards, artist’s zine, and Sharpie marker. Some said it made their whole year.
