Some people never outgrow toys and continue to accumulate them. Others like to collect editioned 3D objects by big-name artists that are more affordable (I might fall into this category.) Still others scratch their heads and say, “I don’t get it.” (See next post, Jeff Koons balloon dog.) The auction site Paddle 8, is featuring a sale called Club House now with just such work. You can check them all out here. Auction ends August 13.
