28.10.2025 THREE DAYS TIMED AUCTION ENDS 25-26-27 NOVEMBER

We are delighted to announce an exceptional three-day online auction this November, hosted in collaboration with Drouot Timed Auction.

This special event was born from the transformation of the renowned Munich gallery created by Daniel Blau, who has entrusted us with part of his remarkable photographic inventory. These works will be carefully described and presented to new collectors eager to explore the world of fine photography.

A wide selection of classic, high-quality photographs will be offered without reserve, starting at very accessible prices—an invitation for anyone wishing to begin or expand a photography collection.

The sale will unfold over three themed days:

22.07.2023. ASTA A TEMPO, LUGLIO: LE COSE

We encourage you to build your own personal museum and prepare for future exhibitions using the most beautiful collection of all: vintage photography.

Following the success of the acclaimed Louvre exhibition, “Les Choses” (The Things), curated by Laurence Bertrand Dorléac, we have decided to organize a sale featuring a hundred photographs of objects, which we have named “Le Cose” (The Things in Italian).

The Louvre exhibition, “Les Choses,” offered a fresh perspective on a genre that was long considered minor: still life. The representation of things, with evidence dating back to prehistoric times, allowed for a remarkable selection from the collections of the greatest museums, ranging from prehistoric axes carefully gathered when possible, to Duchamp’s reconstituted ready-mades, and the works of Chardin and Manet.

However, you can no longer collect prehistoric axes or subscribe to the numbered editions organized by Marcel Duchamp himself. Most vintage photographs, which take up little space, are still available for acquisition.

The “Le Cose” catalog presents vintage photographic prints at highly accessible prices, with bidding starting at $30.
