Characterised by competitive bidding, strong results and a high selling rate, our Contemporary & Post-War Art auctions are among our most popular sales. Held three times a year in our Scottish saleroom and live online, our strong private client base and excellent international marketing reach has seen these auctions grow into flagships of our company.
Encompassing works by both emerging and internationally regarded artists, we have achieved top prices for household names including John Hoyland (a world record), Bridget Riley, Jenny Saville, Sarah Lucas, Terry Frost and Callum Innes, but we also place great importance on the promotion of upcoming talent such as Toby Paterson, Nathan Coley and Martin Boyce. Regularly featured local favourites include John Bellany, John Byrne, Alison Watt, Wilhelmina Barns-Graham and the ‘New Glasgow Boys’ Peter Howson, Ken Currie, Steven Campbell and Adrian Wiszniewski.
Our specialist Contemporary & Post-War Art team have extensive market experience enabling them to offer current market advice, valuations and international market reach.
