RETNA's Universe: Heritage Presents Significant Works and Objects From the Trailblazing Artist's Studio
Original prime-career canvases and more anchor Jan. 30 auction that offers a rare, intimate journey into the creative world of the Los Angeles icon
"If I was an artist, and I was in the studio, then whatever I was doing in the studio must be art."
-Bruce Nauman
If you've ever visited an established artist's longtime studio, you have essentially taken a walk through the artist's brain. Maybe his very soul. Not only will you likely encounter completed works, but you'll also see all the moving, working parts of his process, as well as the things that influence and matter to him. You'll probably see works and ephemera by and about his peers and the luminaries who have most impacted his own work, some of which came to the artist through trades, and some from his personal collecting acumen. The artist RETNA, whose name is nearly synonymous with downtown Los Angeles and its ever-evolving art scene, occupied a big studio in the city for more than a recent decade that served not only as his laboratory (and sometimes his home) but also as a living
testament to his passions and process, and as a stomping ground for his peers. On January 30, Heritage presents the contents of this storied artist's studio — which includes museum-quality works — in its RETNA: Signs and Symbols Part 1 Urban Art Auction, and serves as a portal into RETNA's creative spirit and ethos. The works in the auction make up the very heart of his working studio, which came to Heritage via a legal process.

Bidding Tutorial

Bid Protection
Bid Protection allows you to ensure you are not outbid by automatically increasing your bid to the next full increment if you are outbid during the live event. This protects you from being "sniped" by a single increment. Bid Protection can be entered on all items except the current lot and the next upcoming lot in a Live Auction.
Note: The extra increment won't be placed until the item is up for live bidding, so it is possible that you could be outbid by a bid placed prior to live bidding, such as another proxy bid, live proxy bid, mail bid, etc., which could result in your losing the lot by that one increment. For the same reason, it is also possible that a currently losing bid with bid protection placed could potentially win the lot once the lot is subject to live bidding and the Bid Protection increment(s) is placed. |
Buyer's premium
A Buyer's Premium is charged in addition to the successful bid. The applicable Buyer's Premium for bids placed with Heritage for this Auctions is 25% on the first $1,000,000 (minimum $49), 20% of any amount between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000, and 15% of any amount over $5,000,000 per lot.. |

Heritage Live! allows you to place late proxy bids and compete live against the auction floor from your PC or mobile device*. We recommend placing proxy bids before the live session in the unlikely event either side experiences technical problems during the auction.
Note: Proxy bidding ends ten minutes prior to the session start time. Live Proxy bidding on Heritage Live now starts within 2 hours of when the auction opens for proxy bidding and continues through the live session. |
