Collection Snapshot: KidSuper
Focus
The KidSuper Spring Summer 2023 show is a performance art piece that mimics an auction sale. Attendees receive a numbered paddle upon entering an auction room. As the looks and paintings are revealed, Lydia Fenet, the lead Benefit Auctioneer at Christie’s, begins auctioning the paintings to the unknowing fashion crowd.
Planted actors start raising their paddles as each painting and look are revealed, so that the show plays out like an actual auction. Each painting then hangs in the space, slowly transforming it into a gallery. Following the show, the space transforms into an art opening with music performances, and continues as a gallery for three more days.
