£2.5 Million Bidding Battle for Rare Cy Twombly at London Auction | Sotheby's
Рет қаралды 4,233
20 күн бұрынAfter a 4-minute bidding battle, Cy Twombly’s ‘Untitled (Formian Dreams + Actuality)’ fetched £2.5 million during the Modern & Contemporary Evening Auction at Sotheby's London this week, double its low estimate.
Departing from his graphic linearity of the 1960s and 70s, Twombly turns here towards a fully expressive and gestural use of paint that exudes a vibrant visual energy.
The London Summer Season was presented in partnership with @uksothebysinternationalrealty.

The auctioneer is Oliver Barker. He has a very subtle way of encouraging bidders to keep advancing their bids. Plus, the way he leans over the podium toward the audience tends to create a more personal attentiveness, rather than if he just stood upright. I enjoy watching him.

Rare enough to avoid showing it clearly for some reason

May I suggest donating fine art to a charity? I have donated to major events for the cystic fibrosis foundation and pieces have gone quite high
