When the annual Art Papers returns to Mason Murer Fine Art on Feb. 11 and 12, well-dressed collectors and cocktail sipping artists will be rubbing elbows on the gallery floor. Until then, the auction is getting off to start online, where one can comfortably bid in pajama pants. The online portion isn't comprehensive right now, but work by Jerry Seigel, Matt Haffner, Adad Hannah, Marcus Kenney, Gyun Hur, and almost two hundred other artists is already up for bidding. New works will be added daily up until Thurs., Feb. 9, when the online auction will close in anticipation of in person bidding.

I don't get it -- the online auction just gets the bidding process started (and the price moving up) in advance of the actual auction?

food_eater: There is a buy it now option and the auction is silent, so a standard online bid could still be a winner after the party. Not a bad way to preview, either, if you plan on bidding at the party.
