Mario Picardo, a former student of semiology, photographs, films and collects traces of our society to feed a library of signs and forms at the heart of his many drawings. Educated by American painting and the popular culture of the 90s, he uses this vast survey as a basis for his paintings. Growing up alongside his father, a house painter, Mario Picardo inherited an attraction for building materials like polyurethane, largely preferred to those of the Beaux-Arts. This new series of paintings are inspired by his childhood and the Chilean comic-strip Condorito.

Popcorn and cascade bidding:
If a bid is placed during the last 1 minute of the auction, the closing time will be automatically extended for an additional 1 minute from the time the last bid was placed. The item will close once all bidding activity has stopped. This is recommended for high-value and popular items. Popcorn bidding prevents bidders from waiting until the last minute to bid without giving the bidders who were outbid an opportunity to rebid.
Cascade bidding ensures auction lots close at staggering times, one after another. For example, the first lot of an auction might close at 12:01pm, the second lot would close at 12:02pm, then the third lot at 12:03pm, etc.
