The auction house’s description
RIVICH AUCTION Presents: ANONYMOUS. The fresh to market estate of an avant garde collector who chooses to remain anonymous. A collector of all that was quietly made by the hands of unknown and forgotten people. Folk Art by self-taught artists from a time when hands were used for more- when making was necessity, instinct, ritual, and expression all at once. Join RIVICH AUCTION for strange forms, raw materials, obsessive details, and the unmistakable evidence of a human hand. In addition, RA presents the largest body of work by the American Folk Artist, POPS CASEY. LEE GODIE, JIMMY LEE SUDDUTH and the traditional names you like to see are represented here. Join us Friday Oct 2nd at 11:00 AM Central Time.
