All auction items will have an accompanying Digital Ownership Token (DOT), that will allow owners to resell their physical collectibles on the Coinllectibles MetaMall (www.Coinllectibles.Art) as well as on third party NFT marketplaces.
Commenting on the auction, Terry Lee, Head of Art at Coinllectibles, said, “When we were planning the inaugural DOT auction in Singapore, we toyed with the possibility of working with well-known auction houses from abroad. However, we want to directly add value to the Singapore and Asia art scenes. We strongly believe that bespoke auction houses – like 33 Auction, have an important role to play in the development of a vibrant regional art ecosystem. After some consideration, we concluded that 33 Auction is an ideal partner to help us achieve our desired outcome.”
Founded in 1999, 33 Auction is one of Singapore’s leading boutique auction houses in the Asian Contemporary Arts Scene with branches in Singapore, Indonesia and China. One of the more notable achievements saw 33 Auction selling Liu Kang’s Street Scene painting – Singapore Trengganu Street for more than 80% above the estimated price during the 2019 Singapore Art Week Auction. Liu Kang was a renowned Singaporean artist known for his Balinese-themed figurative painting and that auction helped set a record price of S$183,000 (US$128,873) for his paintings.
Commenting on the collaboration with Coinllectibles, David Fu, the Director at 33 Auctions, said, “I am very intrigued with the idea of digital ownership tokens. As a director of an auction house, I can certainly see a lot of potential uses for it. One thing that caught my attention is how auction winners can immediately put the DOTs up for sale in NFT market places. If this works the way that it should, it will definitely make it easier for enthusiasts to collect arts and collectibles. In addition, it will give the whole art ecosystem access to new groups of young collectors – those who previously may not have considered investing in traditional arts and collectibles.”
The inaugural arts and collectibles DOT auction by Coinllectibles & 33 Auction is a free event. However, attendees will be required to register in order to participate and bid during the auction. For more information, please refer to the information below.
