Banksy Sotheby's Jan 19th , by jluhiex on Jan 17, 2017 7:28:30 GMT 1, Not sure how strong the Banksy market is in Asia but with the $ conversion I would say anywhere within the estimates is a bargain. Bluechippers like Warhol always command top dollar no matter where but I've noticed Asian countries love Nara, Kusama, KAWS...verdicts still out on how Bansky will fare.

some one will get burn with the Elephant with out COA, is a gifted print so will never get one
Actually, if you click on the Saleroom Notice you get a pop-up window that states: "This work is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity issued by Pest Control."

Yes, Peter, that's all well and good. But that would mean the forum couldn't speculate wildly. |

I think the more reasonable question is: have you?
What I wrote, and what Unica also mentions, is that according to the Salesroom Notice for the listing, the piece has a certificate of authenticity from Pest Control.
If you have information to the contrary directly from the auction house, it would be good to know.

Wisky, I appreciate you taking a guess at the price. IMO you may be on the high side, I'm going with ยฃ110k KR and ยฃ75k on the HW with BP. We shall see.
210k GBP for Keep it real 90k GBP for heavy weaponry Regarding Pest Control, I don't think any of the major auction houses would sell a Banksy piece without the PC COA. Wisky, I appreciate you taking a guess at the price. IMO you may be on the high side, I'm going with ยฃ110k KR and ยฃ75k on the HW with BP. We shall see. |

Banksy Sotheby's Jan 19th , by lee3 on Jan 17, 2017 19:03:10 GMT 1, 210k GBP for Keep it real 90k GBP for heavy weaponry
Banksy
Title Keep it real
Description Banksy (British, born 1975)'Keep It Real', 2002 signed in stencil on the overlap
Medium stencil spraypaint
Year of Work 2002
Size Height 8 in.; Width 8 in. / Height 20.3 cm.; Width 20.3 cm. Misc. Signed
Sale of Bonhams London: Tuesday, February 24, 2009 [Lot 00077]Urban Art
Estimate 15,000 - 20,000 GBP (18,070 - 24,093 USD)
Sold For Bought In
210k GBP for Keep it real 90k GBP for heavy weaponry I can't see that kind of number for keep it real, can you? I vividly recall the example below going unsold in early '09 (granted the world was a much different place at that time). I entered a post sale bid with a few others and exited the bidding within the estimate range; it eventually sold to someone else for a touch over the high estimate. It's the only example that I can recall in my collecting years where something was unsold at auction and then exceeded the high estimate post sale. Regardless, 8 years ago now but still seems like the blink of an eye. I'd guess both works sell in the $75-100k range but pure speculation on my part. Relative to the discussion above, we can be certain that any Banksy that is offered at the primary auction houses will have a COA. Neither house would place a work in a sale without confirming authenticity beforehand.

are you saying you didn't bid on it during the auction in order to get it at a lower price after the auction?

Banksy Sotheby's Jan 19th , by jluhiex on Jan 19, 2017 13:41:34 GMT 1, Asians are very superstitious. Keep it real went for way lower than expected. Heavy weaponry not bad.
On a side note...KAWS, Nara are insanely sought after in Asia. Pretty much everything went 20% over estimate. I still don't think Banksy is catching on in Asia yet.

Banksy Sotheby's Jan 19th , by Deleted on Jan 19, 2017 16:54:10 GMT 1, A fun tool do seperate the actual value of the artworks hammered at auction vs the costs associated with the "privilege" of purchasing said artwork. It is in many people's personal interest to roll an auction house's sourcing fees, government tax implications and facilitation commissions into the precieved value of the hammered artwork itself.
If you pay a someone privately or commercially to source a piece for you and they tack on 20% for the service it does not necessarily instantly make your artwork 20% more valuable. If you decide to pay by credit card vs cash and add 3.5% in fees the piece does not just increase in value by 3.5%.
This is just my personal thought process and doesn't necessarily make what I am saying a fact my any means.

Looking back, it was probably commonplace in '09 for many art lovers to wonder aloud if they would have paid the low estimate for works as the market was quickly hitting its bottom. Those auctions were littered with unsold works on the heels of outrageous prices (and a top) in '08. We certainly didn't know it at the time but the first half of '09 was arguably the worst half year for auctions from a selling standpoint so far this century.

210k GBP for Keep it real 90k GBP for heavy weaponry You are wrong. Was actually 100% correct for the Heavy weaponry and I think that the Keep it real was a comparative bargain (That's if you have 100k spare) |

I guess the auction houses have to make sales whether it's at auction or after in private.
The prices for art these days are crazy, mega high.
To me it's similar to a pyramid scheme where as long as people keep feeding into the art bubble it will continue and sellers will get a return but if one day there are no more hedge fund managers investing other peoples money and earning huge commissions, prices will drop.
The % and salary difference regarding the bosses and rich speculators these days compared with peoples wages used to be about 30 times as much and today it's about 300 times as much per year I read somewhere.
All in all people pay tens or hundreds of thousands for very average art as an investment, or as a social status symbol.
That's how it looks to me.
We had the Brit art and now we have urban art.
Whats next I wonder?

Lol, I guess the auction houses have to make sales whether it's at auction or after in private. The prices for art these days are crazy, mega high. To me it's similar to a pyramid scheme where as long as people keep feeding into the art bubble it will continue and sellers will get a return but if one day there are no more hedge fund managers investing other peoples money and earning huge commissions, prices will drop. The % and salary difference regarding the bosses and rich speculators these days compared with peoples wages used to be about 30 times as much and today it's about 300 times as much per year I read somewhere. All in all people pay tens or hundreds of thousands for very average art as an investment, or as a social status symbol. That's how it looks to me. We had the Brit art and now we have urban art. Whats next I wonder? |
