ART AUCTION<br />
The Art Auction held on Thursday 7 July at the City Gallery in Civic<br />
Square, incorporating 67 donated pieces of New Zealand Contemporary<br />
Art was a huge success, with sales achieved in excess of $200,000.<br />
This Auction was part of the <strong>College</strong>’s ongoing<br />
capital fundraising campaign and was held in<br />
support of the Creative & Performing Arts Centre,<br />
to be opened in 2012. Our sincere thanks to Mr<br />
Aloysius Teh, a <strong>Scots</strong> Prep School parent, for his<br />
initiative and ongoing vision in obtaining these<br />
wonderful artworks and for being the key driver<br />
behind the project.<br />
As Mr Teh said: “The fact that so many highprofile<br />
creative individuals and their dealers have<br />
so generously lent their support by donating<br />
artworks, and shared our vision for what a creative<br />
education can and could be in the future, is very<br />
exciting. Every artist’s name will feature on a<br />
classroom wall, and forever be an integral part of<br />
the fabric of this building.”<br />
There were various events held in the leadup<br />
to the auction. Three Year 13 Art History students,<br />
Pan Matsis, Andrew McKegg and James Shand,<br />
gave public talks about their favourite artworks<br />
in the auction. The String Ensemble wowed<br />
those who attended a VIP preview event, while<br />
the Jazz Band proved equally popular as people<br />
arrived for the auction itself.<br />
Sophie Coupland from Webbs Auction,<br />
made sure people “bid hard, and bid high” on<br />
the night.<br />
There is still an opportunity for you to purchase<br />
a leading contemporary NZ artwork, as we have<br />
two that did not meet their reserve price on the<br />
night. If you are interested, please contact Ann<br />
Walker at the <strong>College</strong> for more details.<br />
Be a Part of our Future<br />
Buy a piece of the new Creative and Performing Arts Centre [CPAC] or Covered<br />
Sports Centre [CSC] facilities and record your name in the <strong>College</strong>’s history.<br />
When you purchase a piece for $1,500 [or $500 a<br />
year for 3 years] by accessing the <strong>College</strong> website,<br />
your name and dedication of your choice can<br />
appear on your chosen jigsaw piece/s online.<br />
This will be replicated on a touch screen in the<br />
building. Funds raised will go towards the fitting<br />
out of these two new buildings.<br />
We apologise to those prospective donors who<br />
have attempted unsuccessfully to buy a piece<br />
of the jigsaw for either building online. These<br />
processing difficulties have now been rectified.<br />
Parents of the <strong>College</strong> can also authorise us to<br />
add your donation to your son’s school account.<br />
Tax incentives are available when you donate<br />
to this project. Please contact Ann Walker at the<br />
<strong>College</strong> DDI 04 803 0590 – walkera@scotscollege.<br />
