BENEFIT AUCTION CURATORIAL COMMITTEE

On the occasion of its 2019 Annual Benefit & Auction, ICI has assembled the inaugural Benefit Auction Curatorial Committee, composed of some of ICI’s closest collaborators: Magali Arriola, Director, Tamayo Museum, Mexico City; Matthew Higgs, Chief Curator, White Columns, New York; Barbara London, Independent Curator; Larry Ossei-Mensah, Chief Curator, Museum of Contemporary Art, Detroit; Tumelo Mosaka, Independent Curator; Paul Schimmel, Independent Curator; Franklin Sirmans, Director, Pérez Art Museum, Miami. The Benefit Auction Curatorial Committee has provided advice and assistance in the creation of a unique Benefit Auction, adding their voices and endorsement to the generosity of artists who support ICI’s mission and programs.

Since 2013, we have honored the generosity artists by developing collaborations with galleries, collectors, and others to maximize the power of each donation; we were among the first non-profits to collaborate with Artsy; and since 2013 we have always offered artists the choice to receive up to 20% of the sale of their donated works.

The Live Auction will be led by Gabby Palmieri during the ICI Benefit & Auction. To attend and for more information about the event, see here.

about ici

Independent Curators International (ICI) supports the work of curators to help create stronger art communities through experimentation, collaboration, and international engagement. Curators are arts community leaders and organizers who champion artistic practice; build essential infrastructures and institutions; and generate public engagement with art. Our collaborative programs connect curators across generations, and across social, political and cultural borders. They form an international framework for sharing knowledge and resources — promoting cultural exchange, access to art, and public awareness for the curator’s role.
