We are pleased to announce Sils Silent Benefit Auction, organised with the generosity of a number of Dutch and International artists whose contributions support its activities. All proceeds will go toward Sils programming for the 2011-2012 season.
The Date:
16/04/11
The Place:
Witte de With Contemporary Art Center
1st Floor Auditorium
Witte de Withstraat 50, Rotterdam
The Programme:
18:00-19:00 Reception, Preview & Bidding registration
19:00-21:00 Opening & Silent Auction Bidding
21:00 Closing of Bids
22:00 After Party @ Exit (MAURITSSTRAAT 173) featuring Eklin
The Bidding:
All the artworks up for sale will be exhibited in the space and auctioned simultaneously via silent bidding. Without the presence of an auctioneer, registered bidders will write their bids on supplied sheets and at 21:00 the highest bidder for each work wins that work.
Absentee bidding is available for those who are not able to be present. To register for absentee bidding or for other inquiries please contact us via email
The Thanks:
Sils Silent auction is generously supported by:
Witte de With Contemporary Art Center, Rembrandt Lijstenmakerij and Rijnja Repro Rotterdam.
In addition, our poster & flyer was created and designed by the graphic designer Nicole Martens.
Sils would like to extend our immense gratitude to all of the participating artists who so generously have given and showed their support for this auction and for our program throughout the whole year; without you our program would not be possible. We would also like to specially thank Eva Visser for her often hidden and kindhearted assistance.
