Early bidding is now live, and the live auction will take place on June 17th at 6pm ET. Register to bid at greenhouseauctions.net.

Works featured in the sale candidly explore issues of our present moment, from self-identification and representation to collective consciousness, history and spirituality relating to the body, processing haptic memory and trauma, pride in familial heritage and ontological being. And excitingly, artists will be taking home 87.4% of the final sale price. 

About Cereus Art:
Cereus Art’s mission is to empower independent and emerging artists to realize success and longevity in their careers. Acting as a hybrid organization, Cereus Art provides critical business education and mentorship opportunities largely missing from academic programs; reimagines a marketplace with artists’ complete autonomy while offering a greatly reduced commission structure; and acts a community of young talented creatives who provide mutual support and together question the traditional structure of gallery representation for emerging artists. Cereus Art works with artists from communities most underrepresented in the marketplace, prioritizing equity and redistributing opportunity.
