An incredible opportunity to buy affordable art specially chosen by experienced art critics
and be on TV
This is your chance to see and buy the work of some of the country’s best amateur and professional artists. From thousands of applicants, the judges from the BBC2 TV series ‘Show Me the Monet’ have selected the very best artworks to appear in a one-off exhibition and sale that takes place in the capital next month (12-14 April 2012).
Hosted at the Mall Galleries, in London’s West End, the exhibition will showcase work from 36 specifically selected artists. The work includes photography, sculpture, ceramics and paintings and were chosen by the BBC2 Show me the Monet judges Charlotte Mullins, David Lee and Roy Bolton. These experienced art critics and connoisseurs have selected the very best artworks from thousands of entries to the popular TV series and amongst them could be a future masterpiece!
The exhibition will take place on Thursday 12th April from 10am – 6pm, Friday 13th April from 10am to 5pm and Saturday 14th April from 10am – 6pm. With the huge increase in the interest in affordable art, this is the perfect opportunity to get involved and with guide prices starting at around £300, you could bag yourself a bargain.
On Thursday 12th and Friday 13th April you can buy any of the work on show by sealed bid. This means that no-one will know what anyone has bid until the big reveal to the artists on Saturday 14th. Buyers may offer more or less than the guide price and the highest offer above the guide will automatically win the work. If no offers come in above the guide price then the artist will decide whether they still wish to sell their work to the highest bidder.
Be on TV! On Saturday 14th April from 10am-6pm, Show Me the Monet presenter, Chris Hollins (BBC Breakfast, Cash in the Attic, Watchdog), will reveal to artists whether or not their art has sold and if so, for how much. This will be filmed for inclusion in the series so come along and be part of the action as Chris reveals the news (whether it is good or bad!) to the artists. Please note that it will not be possible to bid to buy any artwork on the Saturday.
Numbers are limited for the filming on Saturday 14th so two hour entry slots must be pre-booked. Please email us with your preferred entry time: 10am, 12 noon, 2pm or 4pm and include your name and telephone number.
