Annual Benefit & Auction

On Monday, October 21, 2019, ICI held its Annual Benefit & Auction in New York City. ICI’s Board of Trustees, staff, and the 2019 Benefit Committee—championed by Co-Chairs Carlos Basuldo, Alex Logsdail, and Sarina Tang, as well as honorary Co-Chairs Sydie Lansing and Ann Schaffer—welcomed guests from around the world to celebrate 44 years of commitment to curatorial excellence and innovation. See a complete list of the 2019 Benefit Committee on page 60. On the occasion ICI honored Patrizia Sandretto Re Rebaudengo with the Leo Award, presented by Carlos Basualdo, Keith L. and Katherine Sachs

Every year, ICI is proud to benefit from the generosity of artists who donate works to the Auction, which, for the first time this year, was conceived with the guidance and advice of the Benefit Auction Curatorial Committee (see on page 61 for more). Over 35 works were included in the evening’s silent and live auctions, which were hosted online by Artsy. The live auction was performed by Gabby Palmieri, and included works by Amoako Boafo, Mira Dancy, Robert Mapplethorpe, Paul Pfeiffer, and an exclusive studio visit with Andra Ursuta.
