Aldrich art for auction - Front Page
Art in America, Nov, 2003
The Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art in Ridgefield, Conn., will auction 310 works from its permanent collection on Nov. 9 at the Showplace in Binghamton, N.Y. The sale includes items by 301 artists, including Stephen Antonakos, Jennifer Bartlett, Vik Muniz and Nassos Daphnis, although most of the other names listed are less well known.
The works on offer were assembled by museum founder Larry Aldrich, who approved the deaccession prior to his death in 2001. Museum officials wanted to keep the collection together as a group for the preview and sale, a requirement that precluded the involvement of Manhattan auction houses such as Christie's or Sotheby's, where space is limited. The 40,000-square-foot Binghamton facility, managed by Bob Connelly, who organized the sale, has no trouble accommodating the works. Proceeds from the auction will benefit the exhibition program at the Aldrich, which is currently closed for expansion and set to reopen in spring 2004.
