The Male Form
7 June 2022 | New York
We are proud to announce our next cross-disciplinary auction in the summer of 2022: The Male Form.
This auction aims to disrupt a market centered around the western concept of the male gaze, introducing a fresh context that will spark new discussions on an historically unspoken market. Off the heels of a successful inaugural auction in London in 2021, we will continue to develop this subject in our next sale taking place on 7 June 2022 in New York.
The auction will provide a platform for early and contemporary works to be viewed in a new light: from Antiquities and Old Master Paintings to Sculpture, Decorative Arts, Contemporary Art and Photography.
Do you have works that you'd like to sell in The Male Form auction? We'd love to hear from you. The deadline for entries is 29 April 2022.
