Fontana, Bacon and Freud at Christie's on 19 October
ARTinvestment.RU 04 октября 2008
Each year, Christie's suit during the bidding for Contemporary Art Fair Frieze. Auction this year is a large scale
October 19 in London auction Christie's, timed to the closing of Contemporary Art Fair Frieze Art Fair. At the auction will be represented by 48 lots. It was expected that bidding will be at least 57 million pounds sterling. Lower limit estimeyta this auction Christie's, held in 2007 was 39.9 million pounds.
Head of Contemporary Art Christie's London Pilar Ordovas (Pilar Ordovas) stated that the October auction can be described as important if not more important than the February and June. Frieze Fair attracts more collectors than any other events taking place in the British capital.
Top-auction lots have been the work of three post-war artists: Luchio Fountains (Lucio Fontana), Francis Bacon (Francis Bacon) and Lusiena Freud (Lucian Freud).
Luchio Fontana. «Spatial Concept. End of God »
Piece Luchio Fountains, experts estimated the auction of 12 million pounds (21.8 million dollars) - «firm» canvas with holes, this time with black sequins. Such work, but the golden color, is currently the most expensive work of Italian artist: in February it had 10.3 million pounds at London auction Sotheby's. However, another «vision», pink, was exhibited at the June Christie's auction in London with estimeytom 8 million pounds, but willing to buy it was not found. Therefore, many doubt that a black canvas will find a buyer. Although some work Fountains very interested - in particular, Philip Segal (Philippe Segalot), kupivshego gold «spatial concept», in February. Segal buying works of art for collectors, Christie's owner Francois Pinault (François Pinault).
In a series «The End of God» Luchio Fontana inspired by the space flight of Yuri Gagarin. In 1963-1964 years the artist has created 38 canvases in the form of eggs of different colors and with a lot of holes. A copy of which appears in the auction Christie's, - one of the most salient in the series. His dark, besprent sequins surface resembles the starry sky. The first owner of the painting became famous collector René de Montagu (René de Montaigu). Then it bought Philip and Denise Duran-Ruelle (Philippe & Denyse Durand-Ruel), from which the painting was transferred to inherit this owner. Philippe Durand, Ruelle - descendant of the famous art dealer Paul Durand-Ruelle (Paul Durand-Ruel), paving the way the market works of Impressionism.
Francis Bacon. «Portrait of Henrietta Moraes»
This year, we can safely call «Year Bacon». It was in 2008, he ascended to the third place in the list of authors of works of the most expensive ever sold at public auction . All thanks to «triptych» 1976, which Sotheby's bought the May nebezyzvestny Roman Abramovich. The following year, Bacon would have turned 100 years old, which is why famous gallery Tate Britain organized a major exhibition of the master . Each appearance of the great and terrible picture of Francis in the auction is a constant concern. October 19, Christie's will present the «Portrait of Henrietta Moraes» (estimeyt 5,5-7,5 million pounds).
Everyone knows that Francis Bacon loved to drink and poveselitsya and often zahazhival in the Colony Room bar in Soho. There, he met with his friend Henrietta Moraes (Henrietta Moraes), one of three women whose portraits he wrote. Moraes was a secular lioness, or, as we now would say, «tusovschitsey». It has long struggled with drug and alcohol addiction, has met with many men, and for a time lived together with a famous singer Marianne Feytfull (Marianne Faithfull). She was best friend and sobutylnitsey many famous writers, artists, musicians and poets. With Bacon Moraes friends in the early 1950's, when he was not yet so famous. In the 1960's, the artist began to write portraits of his friends, using the photographs made by his friend John Dikinom (John Deakin). The picture was exhibited at the trade, Bacon created in 1969.
portrait up for auction provided Gerech Brown (Garech Browne). His family acquired the painting in 1970. Brown - one of the representatives of Ireland's famous Guinness dynasty. In 1937, his mother, Una Guinness (Oonagh Guinness), received as a wedding gift to family patrimony Laggala (Luggala), which has become a favorite place for Irish Bohemia. At the age of 12 years, Brown met with a friend Bacon Lusienom Freud, who became a senior fellow. Brown was the only child, who allowed the club Colony Room. In other drinking establishments was a boy, hiding under a long coat Lusiena Freud. As a young Brown visited clubs and bars with his younger brother, Tara, whose short and colorful life inspired group The Beatles to write songs «A Day in the Life». Gerech Brown became one of the main enthusiasts in the world of Irish music: sound recording company he founded Claddagh Records, which recorded the famous group The Chieftains. The leader of the rock group U2 Bono (Bono) once said that the estate was Laggala «epicenter» Irish culture.
portrait of Henrietta Moraes Dimensions - 35.5 x 30.5. At the July auction Sotheby's portrait of George Dyer (George Dyer) is almost the same size goes for 13.8 million pounds .
Lusien Freud. «Portrait of Francis Bacon»
popular not only Francis Bacon, but his friend Lusien Freud. In May, he skinul with pedestal «young and arrogant» Demiena Hurst (Damien Hirst) and Jeff Koons (Jeff Koons) and became by the most expensive work of living artists . At the October auction, Christie's offered a very rare work of the artist: Francis Bacon portrait , evaluated at 5-7 million pounds. There are only two of the canvas Freud portrait of Bacon, the one that appears on the bid - the only one whose whereabouts is known. Another portrait was stolen from an exhibition in Berlin in 1988.
Unlike Bacon, Freud prefers to write «from nature». The portrait presented at Christie's, unfinished: presumably, Bacon was unable to sit their younger colleagues due to the fact that he was forced to go urgently to Morocco, then to his beloved Peter Lacy (Peter Lacy).
In addition to «Bacon», at Christie's put two more pictures Freud: «reads girl», which shows the artist's beloved Caroline Blekvud (Caroline Blackwood), and «Susie», a portrait of his daughter Susie Boytha (Susie Boyt). Both works are estimated at 2-3 million pounds.
At the auction on 19 October, other outstanding works - for example, the monumental abstract work «Claudius» Brushes From the works of young artists is notable beautiful «metaphysical landscape» called «Red House» brush Peter Doig ( Peter Doig) . His estimeyt - 1,5-2 million pounds.
Rich fans of artists from the East to find than wait for Christie's: there are works of Chinese, Indian and Iranian art , including the works of famous authors such as Subodh Gupta (Subodh Gupta) and Farhad Moshiri (Farhad Moshiri).
At the Christie's auction will be exhibited and interesting works of six prominent contemporary designers Ron Arad (Ron Arad), Ciro Kuramata (Shiro Kuramata) and the duo Studio Job.
