The Auctionarium
The Auctionarium is the Grid’s auction house, on the south side of Emblem Court, its door at the end of the colonnade. The Grand Saleroom holds the public sales of original art, limited editions and digital originals by Grid creatives; two salons upstairs are for private sales anyone can book.
Bidding happens in the Grid and on the web: register a card once, set your highest bid and the house bids for you. The lot on the block shows on each saleroom’s screen while a sale runs.
