Domenica More Gordon “Blind Auction 2023”

Event details

*The bidding window　is now closed.

This is the fifth time we have held an auction. This year, to commemorate A&S’s 20th anniversary, 20 celebrative dogs have been received from the artist.

From Thursday, November 23th, an exhibition will be held at &SHOP Kyoto and A&S Zaimokuza Kamakura, where you can actually see a selection of the felt animals. The exhibition will then travel to Tokyo, where the total of 20 pieces will all be on show at once at WHITE BOX.

The online billing window will begin on a special platform online from Thursday, December 8th in conjunction with the start of the Tokyo exhibition. The special page will launch from Thursday, November 23rd with details regarding the auction. We hope you enjoy both viewing the dogs online and the exhibition at each of our shops.

MESSAGE

from D. More Gordon

“The Skateboarding dogs are a 20th Anniversary celebration for A&S. Each one has a number from 1 to 20 to represent each year that A&S has been in existence.

15 or more years ago, Sonya Park flew up to visit me in my studio in Scotland. It was such a wonderful thing for her to do. That visit has inspired many collaborations since, and these dogs are as much a celebration of that ongoing inspiration as they are of 20 years of A&S.

Our collaborations have been many and varied. My first show was a collection of 4 legged dogs and these I feel are their direct descendants.

My aim has always been to give people a small burst of pleasure, just as A&S have given me, though on a much larger scale!”
