If one of the artworks piques your interest, you have two options to participate remotely.
Bid online or submit a written bid
You can bid online through our website or submit your bid in writing in advance. In the latter case, you must indicate the maximum amount you wish to offer for each artwork and send the form to admin@arteglobal.es at least 24 hours before the start of the auction. On the day of the auction, one of our advisors will bid on your behalf for the artworks you have selected.
Conditions for submitting a written bid:
- The service is strictly confidential.
- Bids must be submitted in writing following the same order of appearance in the catalog.
- In the event of receiving identical bids, the one that arrived first will take precedence.
- The participant will be notified of the result of their bids, whether they are awarded or not.
This option is especially interesting if you have already identified a piece that fits your collection or if you are considering your first contemporary art acquisition.

3. What does the charitable contribution include?
The charitable contribution is your entry point to an experience that brings together art, knowledge, and social commitment.
With a single contribution, you will have access for two people to the in-person auction and a program designed to enjoy art from different perspectives.
An experience to experience art up close
Your contribution includes:
- Welcome cocktail: an opportunity to share impressions with other art lovers.
- Exclusive preview visit of the artworks: to discover the pieces featured in the auction.
- Talk on art collecting and investment: given by Elisa Hernando.
- Attendance at the in-person auction: where you can experience the excitement of the bidding.
The talk offers an opportunity to better understand how to approach collecting with criteria, evaluate an artwork, and develop your own perspective.
Share this artistic and charitable experience with someone who enjoys art as much as you do.

In addition, you can continue cultivating your interest through the ArteGlobaL Club, a space where pwe periodically delve into the analysis of artists, movements, and key tools to help you develop a more informed perspective and approach collecting with greater criteria and confidence.
4. Can I contribute without acquiring an artwork?
Of course. The VII Charity Auction is open to different forms of commitment, and acquiring an artwork is just one of them.
With your charitable contribution you will already be contributing to the cause, while enjoying the activities of the in-person event.
Row 0: another way to contribute
If you prefer to support the project without attending the event or participating in the bidding, you can do so through Row 0. It is a voluntary donation entirely destined for the charitable project, with no connection to the purchase of an artwork or attendance at the auction.
5. If I acquire an artwork, where does the money go?
The proceeds from the VII ArteGlobaL Charity Auction are destined for Fundación Querer, an organization committed to improving the quality of life of children with neurological diseases.
The impact of this collaboration can be expressed very concretely:
For every 1,000 euros raised, one month of innovative therapies is funded for a child with a neurological disease.
Behind each contribution is an opportunity to facilitate access to treatments that can make a significant difference in the lives of these children and their families.
For those who collect art, this auction adds a particularly valuable dimension to the acquisition of an artwork: the possibility of contributing to a project with social impact.
Each bid is part of a collective initiative that connects the passion for art with the commitment to help.
