[Brushstrokes 75]

Some sick results yesterday!

As I said, the room was completely packed until the end of the auction!

For the results, here you go :

Can't believe the Taki sold 56 000 euros ! It was bought 50 000 euros in Feb 2010 at Pierre Bergé & Associés (a commisisoned canvas btw)

[edcase]

My mistake. 14,663 after fees:

[ilmambo]

some results are crazy.

lot 178 - J.R "Mariano" screenprint sold for €1,275 ... and it's still available at source for 250€!

[Cedric Mnich]

The latest proves that it's all hype... Some buyers at auction just buy names and don't even know anything about artists and sources.
2 of them are available on ebay as well for less than 400 eur.
LOL

[Simococo]

some double strong results!!!

Lot 73 and 75: Seen 44k euros and 96k
lot 88 and 93: Futura 20.5k and 21k
lots 97, 98 and 99 : Jonone 25k, 21k, 22k
lot 127 : Antoine Gamard 20k
lot 157: Blek 19k
lot 180: Zevs 20k

I was going to bid on the Haring jean leg at 2k low estimate thought I'd have a chance.....sold for over 12k!! Liz Taylor all over again! ;D

Yes seems and the Jonone's off the radar.
Shows diff with UK Dreweats had some real us Graf stuff last year and almost none of it sold yet so much here in a French auction.

C215 did not sell the Bleks did well. I really liked the RCF1 stuff do not know him/her but liked them must have been the only one as neither sold. So not sure if that means a better eye for the future than everyone else - or I'm an idiot. Probably the latter unfortunately did like them though

[guillaume]

Strange: Seen's superman was sold at 77k and reported at 96k

EDIT:Must be auction fees, sorry!

[jojo21]

35k for the fairey, high price for high time

[Brushstrokes 75]

It's just that it's a auction house with a real client base so they tend to reach high results!

[Shoot Again]

And they forgot to tell their 'client base" that some artworks offered on auction were still available from source below their estimates ;-)

[Brushstrokes 75]

It s not their problem or they fault though! People should make their research & know better!

I m surprised they were allowed to sell the ZEVS! I know that Louis Vuitton said it was a copyright infringement when someone tried to sell his... So he couldn't sell it publicly!

Sheps prices at auction continue to be strong. Not crazy, wild, etc; but consistently strong. A good thing IMO.

Fridriks sold for 11,500 EUR - very strong piece!

Thanks Ed, 14,663 EUR per the above link! A good result for the artist in what looks like a strong set of results...

[neurone]

That's crazy ...
I will be not able to collect some Futura or Bleck to this price anymore ...
I other hand, that will give opportunity for new artists to sell

[Shoot Again]

[Shoot Again]

Expect a war for that DRAN ;-)

[trax51]

Im getting my guns Ready.... ;-) i'll fight for the Dran and or Some of the Invader pieces...

BTW, i Know that other forum members are going to attend the auction... Shall we wear an "Hello my name is..." Sticker with our pseudo ?

[seqret]

Can you bid online for that auction?

[Tompkins]

I reckon you will need at least 7k gbp to have any chance of getting anywhere near it.

[ilmambo]

that shopping cart is all wrong

[Simococo]

These chaps usually have some knockout works amongst their street art sales

[gwhain75]

Looking forward to it as well!
Does anybody know what pieces from Invader will be auctioned there?
I sent Artcurial an email and I was told that the catalog will be available on the 2nd of Jan.

Some pretty optimistic estimates on those prints.......

those estimates make no sense, looks like someone couldn't be bothered to go through all the lots and just put 700-900€ on pretty much all of them.

Waah !! I wonder who would pay between 700-900€ for a Fairey you can get at 110 USD on ebay Anyway, if you have money to spend, I have some Fairey at better price, 600€ Crazy shit indeed !!

[gwhain75]

Will be interesting to see the result...
