This Week's Urban Art Auctions: Feb 9 - 15

The days after Artcurial also have several urban and contemporary art auction highlights ready. First off this week is the two-day contemporary art auction at Phillips in London. The auction house will showcase several works by Banksy, Damien Hirst, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring and Retna. The price range is equally diverse as the artists under the hammer. The estimates are lowest for the Keith Haring’s “HELP” from 1989 with €10.000 to Damien Hirst’s “Night Follows Day” (2007) for up to €845.000. The other large auction this week is also in London, a little down the street at Sotheby’s. Sotheby’s offers Jeff Koons, Damien Hirst and Keith Haring in their catalog of contemporary art. As you might have noticed our auction features looks a bit different now. To make the auction information more comprehensible we will feature each painting separately. Just scroll through the slider on the top and see if there’s art that interest you. Clicking on ‘Auction House’ will lead you straight to the auction.
