Going Going Gone! Game

Make your bid with a cut-throat and completely silly art auction-themed board game. Choose your international art collecting-character – from Trey Chic to Belinda Wilsel – and travel the globe (or around the board at least) to collect 36 ‘newly-discovered’ artworks by history’s great artists across nine art movements or periods. The tongue-in-cheek (and entirely imaginary) artworks include the ‘Mona Leonardo’ by Leonardo da Vinci, ‘The Uncontrollable Giggle’ by Munch, ‘Ceci es tune cigarette’ by Magritte, ‘Little Big Pony’ by Jeff Koons, and a self-portrait by Banksy. With full instructions in the ‘Auction Catalogue’ booklet, which explores the history of the paintings and their value. Roll the dice and visit global auction houses – from the Venice Biennale to an auction in Cape Town – and spend millions of dollars on the international art market; but take care not to visit a lawyer or land on your private island as you’ll pay a penalty. With ‘fortune’ cards in the mix, you may find you acquire a palazzo and discover a lost Caravaggio; or, equally, your new Tracy Emin sculpture may be mistaken for rubbish and you lose $20 million. Hilarious, competitive fun for art-loving adults - can you collect and increase the value of your art collection to win the game?
