Announcement: DE JOODE & KAMUTZKI Winter 2013 Auction

“Why we auction art.
It’s a game and we’re playing it.
A comment and a question,
therefore, an investigation.
It’s for artists and for you
personally.
It’s for fun and we’re serious
about it.”
– Manifest, de Joode & Kamutzki Auction House

This Sunday, January 27, Berlin Art Link and Pampero Colectivo will present, De Joode & Kamutzki’s 2013 Winter Auction. Founded in 2010, De Joode & Kamutzki is a Berlin auction house founded by artist/curator Rachel de Joode and artist/auctioneer Maria Kamutzki held biannually at varying locations in Berlin. The goal with each event is to make contemporary art accessible to everyone. They do not see art as a luxury good that one might consider purchasing after everything else that money can buy. Art is essential. Their mission is to inspire people to invest in great artwork not for the sake of its speculative resale value, the status symbol attached to it or as a way to spend money. They want people to buy art out of love, fascination and admiration.

This year’s auction will feature an impressive line-up of international artists including Cécile B. Evans, Iris Touliatou, Jennifer Chan, Letha Wilson, Shana Moulton, Parker Ito, Jared Gradinger & Angela Schubot and Landon Metz. A total of 42 works will be presented with starting prices from €50 – €1000.
