The prestigious Salmagundi Club, located at 47 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, is delighted to announce its Semi-Annual Auction and Exhibition. On three evenings and a Sunday afternoon (Friday, October 16 at 8:00 PM; Sunday, October 18 at 2:00 PM; Thursday, October 22 at 8:00 PM; Friday, October 30 at 8:00 PM), the public will be able to place bids on original artwork with a range of subject matter created by today’s Club artist members.
Remarkably, auction bids start as low as $150 for photography and multi-print graphics, $250 for all limited or unlimited editions of sculpture (except bronze), $300 for paintings, and $400 for for cast metal and bronze sculpture. The exhibition is available for preview starting on Monday, October 5, 2009, open weekdays 1:00 – 6:00 PM, and weekends 1:00 – 5:00 PM, and will be available online at the website, www.salmagundi.org, starting on Monday, October 12.
Eagerly anticipated, the semi-annual auctions at the Salmagundi Club consistently offer a variety of fine art by established and emerging artists. Quite possibly the best-kept secret in the New York art world, the auctions enable novice and experienced collectors to buy high quality fine art at affordable prices. A portion of sales benefit the Club, allowing it to offer art exhibitions, Artist Roundtables, art lectures, and other events to the public.
An Awards Reception is planned for Friday, October 9 from 6:00 to 8:00 PM, to which the press is cordially invited.
