Description

The Annual Art Exhibition and Auction at the San Jose Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA) will be presenting its annual silent and live auction exhibition from September 29th to October 27th. This is an event that all art collectors and enthusiasts will enjoy, celebrating the Bay Area's best and most innovative and stylistic artists.

ICA will offer visitors a free self-guided audio tour of the auction exhibition, which they can access through their phone. The audio tour will include recordings by the artists and giving visitors more insight into the works on view and for sale.

"The ICA's annual auction is a 'finger on the pulse' presentation of what's going on in the Bay Area visual art scene across all media and experiences," explains ICA Executive Director, Cathy Kimball. "What better way to reach out to audiences and extend the auction experience than through the ubiquitous mobile phone."

The Silent Auction Exhibition opens on Saturday, September 29th. The Live Auction Exhibition opens Friday evening, October 5th.

The Silent Auction will open on Saturday, October 6th at 5pm to 7pm. The Silent Auction event is free to attend but to bid in the Silent Auction, guests must purchase a bidder card.

The ICA's Live Auction, considered one of the Bay Area's most anticipated
(and always sold out) cultural events of the year will open Saturday, October 27th. Doors open at 6pm and the auction begins at 7pm. Free champagne, wine, hors d'oeuvres and desserts will be served.
Exhibition will be open during regular Gallery hours.
