Christie’s is honoured to support Anderson Ranch Arts Center’s annual Summer Series. As the premiere destination in America for art making and critical dialogue, the Ranch hosts extensive workshops, virtual programmes and events throughout the year to foster and inspire artistic growth for both emerging and established visual artists. The 2020 Summer Series programme has transitioned to online and will incorporate personal engagements with some of the most influential artists of our time, featuring conversations with significant critics and collectors in both lecture and Q&A formats.

Beginning 2 July, Helen Molesworth will curate stimulating discussions with notable names such as Mark Grotjahn, Nicole Eisenman, Michael Shnayerson and more.

In addition to the Summer Series and virtual workshops, on 16 July, the Ranch will host its first un-Gala — an unprecedented event offered from the comfort of home. Throughout the evening, guests will be guided through unique artistic experiences, receive one-of-a-kind artworks and luxury items and indulge in craft cocktails organized by their “bash-in-a-box.” The purchase of an Open Access Pass directly supports the Ranch’s mission to nurture and to enrich a diverse and growing artistic community. Christie’s is excited to promote Anderson Ranch Art Center and to offer its participants a digital platform for further engagement.
