Item Overview

Description

Eubena Nampitjin was of the older generation that left the desert as mature adults. The majority of her early paintings relate strongly to her land and are expressed from a personal or experiential perspective. She did not begin painting until the second art coordinator, Michael Rae, extended the opportunity to paint beyond the Adult Education Centre to the camps that had established themselves around the fringes of the mission. Here, Eubena developed her aesthetic alongside her second husband, Wimmitji Tjapangarti. Wimmitji and Eubena initially worked in earthy brown and red toning with areas of white dotting and lines. Their early works portrayed Dreaming sites, country, and ancestral travels in the most intimate cartographic detail and are, to this day, the very finest paintings that have ever emanated from the community. In this typical early work, she depicts Yuratjadda Rock Hole and the surrounding countryside with the many bush foods that are available. These include Boora (bush tomato) and many grass seeds such as Binalbi, Lunkunba and Gibring which are ground to a paste and then cooked on the hot coals to make a type of damper. Later, during the mid 1990s and beyond, Eubena's works became far less descriptive of country as she experimented with soft floral patterns and colour, transforming the complex dotting and compositions that characterised her earlier paintings into delicately beautiful and opulent works.

Condition of Sale

This notice is addressed by Cooee Art MarketPlace to any person who may be interested in a Lot, including registered Bidders and potential Bidders (including any eventual Buyer of the Lot).

1. OUR ROLE
In its role Cooee Art MarketPlace acts solely for and in the interests of the Seller. Our job is to sell the Lot at the highest price obtainable at the Sale to a Bidder. 

2. DESCRIPTION OF GOODS
The Seller and Cooee Art MarketPlace warrant that the goods are as described in the catalogue and that the seller has clear title to the works that they are offering for sale.

3. LOTS
Lots are sold to the Buyer on an "as is" basis, with all faults and imperfections. It is your responsibility to examine any Lot in which you are interested. 

4. DESCRIPTIONS OF LOTS AND ESTIMATES AND CONDITION
Estimates are printed beside the Entry in the catalogue. They are an expression of Cooee Art MarketPlace's opinion of the range where Cooee Art MarketPlace thinks the Hammer Price for the Lot is likely to be; it is not an Estimate of value.
In respect of most Lots, we will produce a Condition Report regarding the Lot's physical condition upon request. Cooee Art MarketPlace is not entering into a contract

with you in respect of the Condition Report and accordingly does not assume responsibility to you in respect of it. Notwithstanding the aforementioned we undertake to prepare any Condition Report honestly, with integrity, and in good faith. 

5. BIDDING
We do not accept bids from any person who has not completed to our satisfaction the Registration and Bidding Form. In addition anyone intending to place bids by telephone must apply for and complete a Telephone Bidding Form before the Sale. If you intend to bid through a third-party site (on-line aggregator) you must register your intention to do so and warrant that the information you provide is true and accurate. In all cases you must provide proof of identity, and your intended method of payment.

6. REGISTRATION
We may refuse entry and registration to our Website and our Sale and expressly reserve the right not to grant a Paddle to any applicant.

7. WINNING BIDS
The Buyer will be the Bidder who makes the highest bid for any Lot providing this bid equals or exceeds the Reserve set prior to the sale by the seller as per their contract with Cooee Art Marketplace.

8. ADDITIONAL CHARGES
A Buyer's Premium of 20% of the Hammer Price is payable on all lots. Collection and delivery is the responsibility of the buyer on lots.

Please note there is a 5% service fee charged by Invaluable on purchases made using their service.

9. TAX
Goods and Service Tax will be charged only on the Buyer's Premium, save for cases where the artwork is owned by a GST registered entity (e.g. a registered company or superannuation fund). Artworks owned by GST registered entities will be displayed in

the Sale Catalogue with a Dagger alongside the Lot Number. This symbol indicates that a work of art is subject to GST and therefore GST is applied to both the Hammer Price and the Buyer's Premium.

10. PAYMENT
As a buyer you must ensure that you have readily available funds to pay the Purchase Price and the Buyer's Premium to us in full before making a bid for the Lot. If you are a successful Bidder, payment must be made no later than the end of the second working day after the Sale so that all sums are cleared by the seventh working day after the Sale.

Storage Fees may be charged for items that have not been collected after 7 days of the sale at a rate of $5 per Lot per day.
