4. Art For Tibet Auction at Tibet House
Sponsored by the indefatigable Students for Students for a Free Tibet, this annual auction raises funds for a worthy cause: sounding the alarm about the continuing persecution of Tibetan artists and scholars. A diverse international cadre of artists has pitched in to help, including Shepard Fairey, Matt Adnate, Rima Fujita, Steven Cogle, Ang Tsherin Sherpa, Tenzing Rigdol, COCO144, and Cey Adams.

Online bidding is already open, if you want to get the jump on Wednesday’s auction, or even just get a look. But it’s worth showing up, if not for the set from Balkan Beat pioneer DJ Joro Boro, then for the fellowship of the participating artists.

Location: Tibet House, 22 West 15th Street, New York
Price: Free
Time: 6 p.m.–9 p.m.

Bosco Sodi, Muro Courtesy the artist and Paul Kasmin Gallery.

7. Bosco Sodi presents Muro in Washington Square Park
For Sodi’s first public installation in New York, he has build a giant wall, constructed with 1,600 unique clay timbers that he fired by hand at his studio in Oaxaca, México, with the help of local craftsman. Muro will be erected early in the morning for just one day, at the end of which visitors are invited to remove and take one timber. Each one is sealed by the artist with his signature. At the conclusion of the piece, Muro will endure as “a communally co-owned” work of art. The project reflects Sodi’s ongoing interest in organic processes beyond the artist’s control.

Location: Washington Square Park, 5 Ave, Waverly Pl., West 4 Street and Macdougal Street
Price: Free
Time: Performance begins at 3 p.m., dismantling concludes by 8 p.m.
