Antiques and Books Auction – Shared Gazes

Shared Gazes is a unique selection that invites viewers to explore different ways of seeing, reading, and preserving the world through time. This auction brings together pieces that transcend the material—traces of memory, history, and sensibility that engage in dialogue across eras and perspectives.

At the heart of this edition stands the Keller Family Collection, a legacy gathered over generations that reflects the taste, curiosity, and love for art of Arturo Keller and Deborah Castetter.

This selection also features the refined watercolors of the traveling artist Paul Fischer, whose views of the world—from Mexico to Hong Kong and Greece—reveal a singular sensitivity to landscape and atmosphere. For the first time, we present the “Under the Radar” section, a special curation that brings together pieces chosen for their rarity, authenticity, and historical value.

The auction also includes a remarkable bibliographic selection, with incunabula such as Sermones ad heremitas (1484) by Saint Augustine, and first editions of essential authors like Gabriela Mistral, Octavio Paz, and Gabriel García Márquez. Likewise, the section dedicated to militaria—featuring sabers, medals, and documents—offers an intimate look into the military and political past of various nations.

Shared Gazes is the thread that connects all these pieces, inviting collectors to discover the stories they preserve and to take with them a living fragment of the past.
