945 Madison Avenue, NY 10021 The Artists Among Us
Mon-Sat 10am-5pm, Sun 1-5pm
The Artists Among Us brings together original works by employees from across Sotheby's global community, offering a rare opportunity to encounter the artistic practices of the colleagues who shape the company every day.
Working across painting, photography, sculpture, ceramics, textiles, printmaking, mixed media, and other disciplines, participating artists include specialists, registrars, engineers, art handlers, security officers, client service teams, administrators, and colleagues from across the business. The exhibitions reveal a creative community whose artistic lives extend beyond their professional roles.
Presented across Paris, London, and New York, each exhibition features works available for purchase, with prices ranging from $35 to $15,000. Participating artists retain 80% of the sale price of each work, while the remaining 20% supports a local nonprofit partner in each city. In Paris, proceeds benefit L'Armée du Salut, which provides housing, emergency assistance, and social services to individuals and families experiencing hardship. In London, proceeds support Create Arts, which engages some of the UK's most marginalized communities through inspiring, sustainable arts programs in areas where access to the arts is limited. In New York, proceeds benefit Red Hook Art Project , a Brooklyn-based nonprofit that empowers young people through free visual arts education, mentorship, and community programming.
