ArtBox Auction

A fundraising auction for galleries and studios for Christchurch Artists.

Your support is requested for ArtBox, an auction that features work by leading New Zealand artists to be held at Webb's, 27 October 7pm.  All funds raised will contribute to new spaces for Christchurch artists. Transportable gallery and studio modules that can be interlocked and clustered to create temporary arts precincts throughout the city will be rented to Christchurch artists at a minimal weekly charge.

In the first stages, 18 modules will be built for $12,500 each. These have already been booked for use by 100 Christchurch artists.   Funds raised will contribute towards the construction of the first 18 modules.

ArtBox is supported nationally by leading New Zealand artists including; Don Binney, Nigel Brown, Dick Frizzell, Kristy Gorman, Jason Greig, Sam Harrison, Glen Hayward, Andrew Hemer, Simon Kaan, Hannah Kidd, Peata Larkin, Tony de Lautour, Julia Morison, Miranda Parkes, Seraphine Pick, Jude Rae, Michael Smither, Marte Szirmay, Michel Tuffery, Philip Trusttum, Wayne Youle and many more. 

The works will be on view at Webb's from Tuesday 25 Oct. The auction will take place on Thursday 27 Oct at 7pm. Items purchased are to be paid for and collected on the night. Selected works of art carry a reserve. 
Interested buyers unable to attend the auction night, can place an absentee bid from this website, or pre-arrange to phone bid by ringing Webb's reception on 09 524 6804.
