Notes

Robert Huff was a prominent artist in Miami’s scene for decades. A pioneer in a town with virtually no art scene, the longtime professor at Miami Dade College passed away in 2014. Described as one of Miami’s homegrown pioneers, Huff was influenced by the land around him, highly sensitive to the destruction that man has wrought on it, but also to its inherent beauty. He crafted his artwork to reflect the man-made form, natural shapes and confluence's that frame the contemporary environment. In addition to landscape, Huff also drew inspiration for his painted and constructed works from architecture, re-casting these elements to form a personal vocabulary of abstraction. Huff’s sculptural bent is clear in his art. He used wood and acrylic to create works that could be either a sculpture or a painting depending on the viewer’s choice. Beginning in the late 1960s, Robert Huff lived and worked in Miami-Dade, Florida, where he was a long time professor and head of the Art Department at Miami-Dade College. His work has been exhibited at various institutions including the Lowe Museum, Ft. Lauderdale Museum of Art; Museum of Contemporary Art, North Miami; Ringling Museum of Art and the Bass Museum.

under applicable law, that provision or portion shall be stricken and

and effect. Failure to enforce any of the provisions in the terms &

conditions of sale shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to enforce

their rights or any other of their obligations related to an auction or

other sale by LJD.

from the United States or import into certain countries may be subject to

export and import regulations, licensure and/or other restrictions; in

particular, lots containing animal material such as ivory, rhinoceros

horn, tortoise shell, coral or whalebone may require the granting of one

or more export or import licenses or may be banned from import

altogether by some countries. Lots that contain these aforementioned

materials may also not be eligible for exportation if they are not over

one hundred years of age. It is the buyer's responsibility to investigate

any such restrictions and to obtain any relevant export or import

licenses. Please note that this process is governed by local authorities

and may take considerable time. Regardless of any delay in the

obtaining of an export or import license, or denial of a license's

issuance, purchased lots shall be paid for in accordance with the

conditions of sale, and any such delay or denial shall not serve as the

basis for cancellation of any sale.

Prospective buyers are advised to obtain information from the relevant

regulatory authorities regarding export and import restrictions, inter-

state transport requirements, and costs prior to bidding. There is no

assurance that any necessary licenses can be obtained. A copy of your
