Blind Spot benefit auction


Tonight's auction at Phillips de Pury & Company benefits Photo-Based Art, the non-profit organization associated with the photography magazine Blind Spot.

I couldn't stay for the entire auction, but I saw about half. Unfortunately, most of the works sold below their estimates.

One solid exception was Richard Misrach (American, b. 1949), Mono Lake #2, California - (negative) 1999, (print) 2005, 30 x 37 inches, which was estimated at $7,000-8,000. It sold for $10,000.
