Sascha Braunig Art & Prints for Sale

Canadian artist Sascha Braunig paints abstract images that force the viewer to reconsider the figure in lieu of uncanny pattern. Often sculpting the forms in her compositions out of clay prior to painting, Braunig’s works are all about surface, distorting simple squiggles or zig-zags into phantom objects or sensations. Inspired by Van Eyck and Holbein’s portraits, the artist’s optical illusions facilitate a potent human encounter, repetition and vibrant colors, translating the drama of shadow and texture. In a culture defined by connectivity, Braunig reminds the viewer of the skin they’re in—blending in and drowning become one and the same.

Braunig has shown internationally in a number of fairs and institutions, including at the 2015 New Museum Triennial, LOOP Video Art Fair in Barcelona, and the Bridgehampton Biennial in 2011. She has also shown at the Baltimore Museum of Art and the Institute of Contemporary Art in Portland, Maine. She received the Vincent Mielcarek Prize for Excellence in Photography in 2005 and the Betty Goldin Memorial Fund Prize in 2005. She took part in the prominent MacDowell Colony in New Hampshire in 2013.

How it Works

How bidding works

To place a bid, enter the maximum amount you are willing to pay for the work. Artspace will accept a bid at the next increment, and save any excess amount as a maximum bid. If you are outbid, we will continue bid on your behalf up to your maximum bid.

Bid Increments

Bidding increments increase at the following intervals:

Below $400: $50
Between $400 and $699: $100
Between $700 and $1,499: $200
Between $1,500 and $2,499: $300
Between $2,500 and $4,999: $500
Between $5,000 and $9,999: $1,000
Between $10,000 and $19,999: $2,000
Between $20,000 and $29,999: $3,000
Between $30,000 and $49,999: $4,000
Between $50,000 and $99,999: $5,000
Above $100,000: $10,000

You will receive an email confirmation of your bid and when you are outbid.

If you are the winning bidder, you will be contacted 48 hours after of the close of the auction.

Maximum Bidding

Every bid submitted is treated as a maximum bid. You should always bid the maximum you are willing to spend for a work, though this does not necessarily mean you will pay that price. As the auction unfolds, we will increase your bid by increments to ensure you remain the highest bidder. If the winning amount is less than your maximum bid, you will pay the current increment. If your maximum bid no longer exceeds the current bid, you will receive an outbid notification email, and have the option to bid again.

In the case of multiple bidders placing the same maximum bid, the first person to place the maximum amount takes precedence as the highest bid until another bidder exceeds the maximum amount.

Buyer's Premium & Additional Charges

For Artspace Auctions winning bidders are charged a 15% Buyer's Premium on top of the hammer price. For Artspace Benefit Auctions, Buyer's Premiums are not applied. If they are, this will be clearly noted. Purchases made from all auctions, including benefit auctions, are subject to sales tax.

Check Out

Winning bidders will be contacted within 48 hours to arrange shipping and to provide final price including commission, shipping, and taxes and duties when applicable. Promotion codes cannot be applied to auction works.

* Price listed does not include buyer's premium (if applicable), sales tax, shipping, or handling fees.
