Tamila
Kerimova, Head of 20th Century & Contemporary Art Day Sale: “Building on the record-breaking results of
our Evening Sale last night, which saw a 28% increase from the previous year,
our Day Sale totaled £9.9 million. The top ten demonstrates the international
flavour of the sale, led by Zeng Fanzhi’s Untitled
(Bacon), with further notable prices for Peter Doig, Cecily Brown, Günther
Förg, Thomas Schütte and Gerhard Richter, among others. This strong result is a
testament to the power of our global team who, in celebration of Frieze Week,
put together carefully sourced, well priced material that truly reflects
collecting trends and current tastes.”
