2020 Prix de West Fixed-Price Draw for Art Proxy Sale
The National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum offers proxy bidding for those who wish to bid in the Prix de West Invitational Art Exhibition & Sale Purely Proxy Virtual Experience on Saturday, September 12, 2020. Every year we assist several individuals with this service.
If you wish to bid on one piece, list that artwork and the pertinent information on the proxy form. If you decide to bid on two or more pieces of art, list all items on the proxy form. In this case, you must indicate whether you want both, or if you get #1 that you do not want #2, and so forth.
For instance, if you want to rank the items:
1. Luna Bear Tim Cherry $Price
2. Wonder Josh Elliot $Price
IT IS UNDERSTOOD THAT IF MORE THAN ONE ARTWORK IS LISTED AND YOU ARE DRAWN ON ALL, YOU ARE OBLIGATED TO PURCHASE ALL ARTWORKS UNLESS YOU OTHERWISE INSTRUCT IN WRITING. IT IS ALSO UNDERSTOOD IF YOU ARE BIDDING ON SCULPTURE WITH ADDITIONAL CASTINGS AND NOT DRAWN FOR THE PIECE ON DISPLAY, YOU ARE OBLIGATED TO PURCHASE THE ADDITIONAL CASTING UNLESS YOU OTHERWISE INSTRUCT IN WRITING.
