Last night, the second edition of the ABACT auction was held in São Paulo, for the benefit of the association?s initiatives, with works by renowned artists and initial bids 30% below market value.
The 35 works that were auctioned were carefully selected and donated by important galleries while also promoting the dialogue between the galleries and Brazilian contemporary art, the artists and, of course, the galleries. Lot 19 however, an oeuvre by Valdirlei Dias Nunes, was not auctioned as the Pinacoteca do Estado de São Paulo has exercised their right of choice and selected the painting to become part of its permanent collection.
