Bit sad really IMO...

Sotheby's Contemporary Art Auction - 11th Feb 2010, by lee3 on Jan 25, 2010 23:01:56 GMT 1, Yes, it's a Sotheby's thread and given that I brought Christie's into the mix above, time for PdP. There is some intersting work including a Warhol knives painting that I would be stunned to see hammer anywhere near the low estimate. Some nice Basquiat's in the auctions too and I'll confess digging the Gillian Carnegie "Brunette" work though knowing little about the artist. Anyway, given this board there is one piece (lot 19) of particular interest in the evening sale:
I can't link from PdP's site so just googled Vandalised Oil #001 from 2001 which is estimated at 60-80k GBP (~$100-130k). If memory serves (which it often doesn't) this was double the range but failed to find a buyer at Dreweatts previously. Obviously given the photo above it went under the hammer somewhere in the past. Interesting indeed if in fact this was the pioneering effort from Banksy's Vandalized oils.

The one or two Dreweatts auctions that I paid any attention to had every unsold big ticket item top out one step below the low estimate which suggest to me that most if not all were chandelier bids. I wouldn't put much stock into that 140k bid. However, I like the estimate range for this piece at PdP and would not be surprised given what's going on with this artist at the moment to see it exceed the high estimate.

Sotheby's Contemporary Art Auction - 11th Feb 2010, by afroken on Jan 27, 2010 1:41:26 GMT 1, I very nearly bought that painting for a few hundred quid from the Cargo show in 2001. I thought about it for days and went back to look at it at least 5 times but decided it was too much money in the end. What a fool.

Sotheby's Contemporary Art Auction - 11th Feb 2010, by snausages on Jan 31, 2010 3:40:47 GMT 1, Tough break afroken. So I'm guessing at ยฃ140k you think it's really way overproced.
The one or two Dreweatts auctions that I paid any attention to had every unsold big ticket item top out one step below the low estimate which suggest to me that most if not all were chandelier bids.
Out of curiosity, do the auction houses hire stooges to sit in the audience and wave the paddle till it nears the reserve, or do they pretend that they have a phone bidder, or... I don't doubt the chandelier bids, but the auctions I've attended they've always done a good job of appearing like there was always a real bid coming in from somewhere.

I have no idea regarding the first part of your question whereas the chandeliering that is easy for me to discern is when there is absolutely no activity in the sales room and the auctioneer keeps lifting the price while pointing to the phones. All the more so when the supposed bids stop one step below the low reserve and there is a longer pause before passing. All of the houses do it but some more than others.
I don't attend the auctions in person like I once did which is a shame as I really enjoy them for a host of reasons. But, some of the most important information that was ever passed to me by someone much wiser was to look and learn from the auctioneer's voice and body movement when a reserve has been met if you are still below the low estimate. I've always found the entire process fascinating to watch plus you get the added bonus of looking at some spectacular art in many cases. Of course beauty is in the eye of the beholder given Banksy's morons composition.

Sotheby's Contemporary Art Auction - 11th Feb 2010, by Wearology on Jan 31, 2010 21:03:21 GMT 1, Every industry has people who are hired to either start the action or stop the action - much like a gambling establishment has people working for them called "coolers"
Apart from the orginal word of cooler which most people know what it means. In casino terms, it is someone that has bad luck to make other people lose.
I didn't win coz that stupid cooler was always leaning over my shoulder all the time.
I reckon that guy I played blackjack with was a cooler.

Sotheby's Contemporary Art Auction - 11th Feb 2010, by snausages on Jan 31, 2010 21:31:16 GMT 1, I've attended auctions at Christies and PdP. Christies was excrutiating waiting for the lot I wanted. (I don't know if this was always true) but the two times I went the lots were pulled down the day before the auction so you couldn't even meander around looking at the work. Had to sit there looking at slides...
PdP was more fun, the artwork has always been left up so you can check it out while the bidding is going on in the main room. Sometimes they have snacks/soda and they have a great view of the High Line and Hudson River, short walk up to the galleries in Chlesea afterwards.

Personally, I don't. There are a lot of buyers in the world (particularly middle east) that only buy at auction and won't even source at galleries. We all grow up with different surroundings but some of my friends in the auction world have tipped me off to that behavior which I found strange. I suspect the seller of the ebay Kate that you are referring to is very happy that it didn't sell now.

Sotheby's Contemporary Art Auction - 11th Feb 2010, by mogwhy on Feb 11, 2010 21:39:34 GMT 1, interesting discussion guys.
the only auction i've been to was years ago in australia.
wanted a small, great Gordon Bennett piece that was up for auction. Unfortunately (for me) he suddenly exploded (not literally) days before the auction so i didn't even get a chance to make a bid.
oh, and btw, coolers don't actually exist!
