ARTSPACE ANNOUNCES “GIFT BETTER/GIVE ART” HOLIDAY CAMPAIGN with NEW GIFT GUIDES

Forget the generic gifts this holiday season—we all have enough sweaters, socks and gloves. Why not give something more timeless, like the gift of contemporary art?

Artspace has made gift-giving as simple as possible this year with their holiday gift guide, which includes exclusive merchandise in each of the following categories:

Art Objects

Like contemporary art itself, artist-designed objects come in a dizzying variety of shapes and sizes, from dinner plates (designed by artists like Sophie Calle and Marco Brambilla) to exquisite coffee tables (by Yves Klein and Sol LeWitt) to a 24-hour wall clock by Tauba Auerbach.

Artists’ Books & Monographs

More timeless than the latest bestsellers, this selection provides deeply satisfying entry points to understanding the uniqueness of each artist involved. The perfect addition to anyone’s personal library —by major artists like Maurizio Cattelan, Donald Judd, Liam Gillick, and Richard Tuttle—are works of art in themselves.

Artworks at every price point

Whether you are shopping to help a loved one establish an art collection at an accessible price point or for the savvy collector, Artspace has compiled a selection of choice works that address every budget.

Benefit Editions

All of the works in this collection directly benefit a non-profit, charity, or cultural institution. By collecting with Artspace, you're helping to sustain creative culture around the globe as well as supporting important organizations that are dedicated to making the world a better place.*

Also available: Artspace Gift Cards, available in any denomination and perfect for last minute shoppers or as a gift for the collector with very particular taste.

*Artspace is proud to support non-profits around the globe, including (but not limited to):

ACRIA, Brooklyn Academy of Music, Brooklyn Museums, Coalition for the Homeless, Creative Time, Charity:Water, The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, ICA London, LACMA, Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, LIVESTRONG, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Tate London, The Whitney Museum of American Art.

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.
