Delving into the sordid realms of desire, transaction and public opinion, COMPLETE SMUT Art Auction is Punctum Inc’s response to contemporary art censorship. Asking you to make the call on what’s hot and what’s rot, they present an auction of live performances from a collection that’s obscene, outrageous, appalling or bloody awful crap!

As a bidder, you decide. Is it challenging art or an outright risk to society? Deserving or despicable? Now’s your chance to check your moral panic meter and buy,
ban or bring business acumen to live art.

COMPLETE SMUT Art Auction offers a clutch of nine specially created ‘lots’ ripe for seizure, investment or sharing. Bid for one or purchase the whole series! In a ‘buyer beware’ environment, it’s over to you to determine what’s worth collecting and what’s worth banishing for good. Come cashed up for that spontaneous purchase.
