Dead Darlings began in 2005 as a subversive, anonymous art auction in Amsterdam. It has since grown into an international platform with a mission to explore the often fraught, always complex relationship between the price and the value of an artwork, focusing on dead darlings—works an artist has created but never brought to light. Inspired by “kill your darlings,” they ask: what becomes of these ambivalent works.
