Salmagundi Fall Auction

As I wrote last week the Salmagundi Club Fall Auction is in the offing. Auction items will be sold in person, by telephone, and online on three nights, October 7, 16 and 21. There are about 200 pieces in the sale, ranging from paintings to photography to sculpture.

The Internet firm LiveAuctioneers has become a trusted seller of art, fine jewelry, furniture, and more since 2002. As the online world becomes more and more commonly used for all sorts of transactions--eBay and others were pioneers--it was inevitable that live auctions would eventually come into vogue.

Here are a few items from the October 7 group:

"From Brooklyn," oil, 11x14, Christopher Zhang (Lot #17)

"The Subway," oil, 9x10, Lawrence Butcher (Lot #48)

"The Flower Shop," oil, 11x9, Kathy Anderson (Lot #8)

"Washington Square Golden Arch," photograph, 16x20, Jeffrey Friedkin (Lot #13)

My own oil painting (posted here 9/23) will be offered on the final night of bidding, October 21, and is listed as Lot #180.
