RON BROWNSON ESTATE AUCTION 3
Tuesday, 11 - Tuesday, 18 November 2025

Cordy’s is proud to present the third and final auction of items from the collection of the late Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki curator, Ron Brownson (1952-2023). Ron’s leadership and mentorship was particularly notable in the areas of contemporary Pacifica art and photography. At least two generations of artists and peer curators respected Ron as a leader in these vital areas of our culture. Prior to his passing Ron was working on the landmark survey show of the photographer Mark Adams which was staged this year to great acclaim at the Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki. This auction is a continuation of the two previous auctions from Ron's estate and will feature an array of items from his wider collection. Packing and courier options available at buyers risk and expense. THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE LARGER ITEMS, DINNER SETS AND BOX LOTS. Due to the large quantity of postage we prefer not to courier within the Auckland area. All enquiries email info@cordys.co.nz or phone (09) 5231049. If you have a question just ask.
