THE BERTA ART RAFFLE
13 - 22 May 2016
INVITED BY JUAN ARATA & ELI CORNEJO
This is a non profit project. The goal is to bring together artworks of known and emerging artists to the established art community while also including any aspiring young art collectors. The raffle takes place through a group exhibition, that will allow the artists to not only display their works, but also to receive a monetary compensation. Each ticket holder becomes a patron, while the artists are provided a platform and the funding to begin or further their careers. The project comes with an in-born twist: each ticket guarantees the owner an original artwork, determined at random by a lottery system and the artist get a real chance at being discovered by a new audience. So the raffle becomes the "courtyard" where this artistic and human exchange happens. Nobody loses, everyone wins.
