kansas church tiffany window sale

First Presbyterian Church in Topeka, Kansas, is selling one of its ten Tiffany stained-glass windows at Sotheby's Design sale on December 10. The Jonathan Thomas Memorial Window, a rare medallion window designed by Louis Comfort Tiffany himself in 1910, carries an estimate of $1.5 million to $2 million. The church cites the high cost of maintaining its historic building and the Tiffany windows—sending just one window for repair cost over $50,000—as the reason for the sale. The auction also features a magnolia floor lamp designed by Agnes Northrup, estimated at $2 million to $3 million.

jack butcher self checkout abmb

Artist Jack Butcher (b. 1988) debuted his first-ever booth at Art Basel Miami Beach, titled *Self Checkout*, where he sells art—literally receipts—on a pay-what-you-wish model. Each receipt includes a seed phrase creating a custodial Ethereum wallet holding a digital copy, but the NFT cannot be sold; it merely proves ownership of the physical receipt. The project features a real-time tracker showing his progress toward recouping the $74,211 total cost of the booth, with purchases made at self-checkout kiosks or online in Ethereum. By the fair's second day, the amount needed had dropped to $33,103.56, and Butcher was optimistic about breaking even. If the countdown hits zero, he will auction the flip board and receipt case as a one-of-one sculpture.

Show me the money: UK gallery and auction house accounts reveal reality of a tough market

Recent financial filings from UK-based art businesses reveal a stark downturn in the art market, highlighted by the sudden liquidation of Stephen Friedman Gallery. The gallery's collapse followed expensive expansion projects in London and New York, compounded by a £1.7m loss in 2023 and a significant debt of £11.4m to creditors. Other major players, including Thaddaeus Ropac, reported substantial revenue drops, with Ropac’s turnover falling from £49.6m to £36.4m as the industry grapples with rising overheads and economic volatility.
