Fifth Annual Curated Sale of Indiana Art
Taking place 4/18/21 at 1pm at the Arch in Indianapolis, our Spring auction will feature over 100 pieces of historic Indiana art. Now online: Fifth Annual Curated Sale of Historic Indiana Art
We will be debuting about ten selections from the artistic estate of Simon P. Baus — works that have never come to market. In addition, the sale will feature painting by William McKendree Snyder, T.C. Steele, Will Vawter, William Forsyth, Clifton Wheeler, Glenn Cooper Henshaw, Carl Graf, and many others. This will be a live, attended auction with live, online bidding. Please contact us with any questions.
In preparation for bringing out Baus’ works, we created a thorough biography of the artist which provides a great deal of context to his place in the Indiana art scene through the years. You can see our entire biography here
