Glass by Brent Sommerhauser
$110This is a rare chance to own affordable work by local artist (and genius technical fabricator) Brent Sommerhauser. Known for his ingenious use of different mediums (including such witty inventions as a breakable glass doorstop) Sommerhauser has recently been revisiting the possibilities of recycled bottles. "Much more challenging in many ways than glass formulated for art production," he says. "Much more rewarding in terms of stepping into the cycle of a material." One of his enigmatic graphite drawings is currently on view at the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art in the paper-themed exhibition, Lined and Torn.

Thank you so much for your support of the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art by participating in our holiday auction!
We are thrilled to have you on board for this auction-style fundraiser, where we set the starting price, and you get to bid against other enthusiastic buyers. Plus, you can easily keep track of your bids right here on the GiveSmart platform. It's a convenient way to expand (or begin) your art collection!
Now, let's talk about fairness and honesty. We want to create a level playing field for everyone involved. So, we kindly request that you resist any temptation to engage in shill bidding. Our goal is to ensure a transparent and enjoyable experience for everyone, where the highest genuine bidder is the one who walks away with the prize.
You may be asked to provide your payment method and shipping address during bidding. This allows us to streamline the transaction if you win the auction. Just a heads up, though, once you place a bid, it's a commitment to purchase the item if you come out on top. So, please bid responsibly!
While we strive to capture the true essence of our artwork in the photos, it's important to remember that colors may appear slightly different in person. Therefore, we recommend referring to the photos and descriptions for the most accurate representation.
Now, here's some essential information to make your auction purchase a breeze:
Once the auction concludes, successful bidders will be required to make payment for their won items. As soon as that's sorted, you can schedule an appointment to collect your artwork from our museum within ten business days. Should you require shipping, just let us know, and we'll gladly assist you in coordinating the process. Please keep in mind that any shipping expenses will need to be covered by the buyer. We'll take care of packaging, whether it's for local transportation or FedEx Ground shipment. However, we kindly ask for your understanding that the museum cannot be held responsible for any damage or loss that may occur during transit. There may also be customs processing and additional charges for international shipments.
To arrange for pickup or shipping, please reach out to us during our business hours, which are Monday to Saturday from 10 am to 5 pm. You can either give us a call at 702-895-3381 or email our director at [email protected]. We'll be more than happy to assist you every step of the way!
