Firstdraft Fundraising Auction 2014
Go a bit Charles Saatchi and help out one of the city's best artist-run initiatives.
Overview
If you’re passionate about keeping emerging and experimental art on the boil, here’s a chance to put your money where your mouth is — and take home an artwork in the process. The annual Firstdraft Auction is upon us and nearly 70 sculptures, paintings, photos and drawings are up for grabs.
You’ll find them on display at the Firstdraft Gallery from Thursday, September 18. Silent bidding will kick into action when the clock strikes midday, continuing until the official launch event — and the live segment of the auction — starts at 6pm the following day.
Oodles of Firstdraft alumni and supporters have donated works, including the likes of Claire Healy and Sean Cordeiro, Hany Armanious, Justene Williams, Alex Seton and Jasper Knight. The event is one of the artist-run initiative's most important fundraisers, with proceeds going towards its ongoing support, production, dissemination and discussion of contemporary art. So roll on up and make like you're Charles Saatchi.
