Paintings to benefit the David Nalbandian Foundation at Sotheby's

With the US Open underway Sotheby’s is delighted to announce that it is to offer paintings by two of the leading artists in Argentina to benefit the charity founded by one of tennis’s biggest stars - David Nalbandian, who is scheduled to play his first match of the tournament this afternoon.

The works will be included in the Latin American Art auction on 16 and 17 November in New York. The Argentine player has had a successful 2010, guiding Argentina through to the Davis Cup semi-finals and winning his 11th ATP World Tour title. He now returns to Flushing Meadow for the US Open, where he reached the semi-finals in 2003 and the quarterfinals in 2005 and where he won the 1998 US Open Junior tournament, beating Roger Federer in the final. The two works to be offered are Sin Título by León Ferrari and Antonio Segui’s Un Angel both of which have been donated by the artists to benefit the David Nalbandian Foundation.

Con el U.S. Open ya en marcha, Sotheby’s tiene el placer de anunciar que ofrecerá en subasta cuadros de dos grandes artistas argentinos para beneficiar a la fundación creada por una de las mayores estrellas del tennis – David Nalbandian.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
