New York's First Street Art Auction Happening This, by hotdog on Jul 31, 2012 23:44:36 GMT 1, They have been going on for years in Europe, but there hasnโt been one in the US, until now. Doyle New York, the Manhattan auction house, will be hosting their Inaugural Street Art Auction on October 16, 2012.
For the birthplace of graffiti and street art, it seems rather surprising that an auction like this hasnโt taken place before at a large auction house. While Phillips de Pury and other auction houses have regularly sold street art as part of larger offerings โ often in sales targeting young and โemergingโ buyers โ Doyle appears to be the first to take the plunge of creating a dedicated auction in the US.
Their request for consignments indicates who they consider the most desirable artists. It reads:
They are currently seeking works to feature in the auction by artists such as Shepard Fairey, Banksy, Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat, KAWS, Os Gemeos, David Choe, Faile, Barry McGee, Zephyr, Dr. Lakra, Swoon, Lady Pink, Dash Snow, Futura 2000, Crash, Ron English, D*Face, Seen, Dondi White and many more

New York's First Street Art Auction Happening This, by metropolis on Sept 14, 2012 22:49:32 GMT 1, Not sure how many of you on the boards are able to get to NYC next week, but here's an event we're holding in advance of the auction...
campaign.r20.constantcontact.com/render?llr=ppaj49cab&v=001-VufbrhO4aYIOg_cpcp2V4O8PRWExew7oYTk-K3ke-x7vuf6bCQ8WBN6LiTFP0nrfU8L2X39lFGjH5lVI1PxrgAYY00BDc5BmPFkCkBLRCneRrSsCN1_jw%3D%3D
You are cordially invited to A PANEL DISCUSSION TRACING THE EVOLUTION OF STREET ART With Buff Monster, Adam Cost (AKA COST), Hrag Vartanian and David Meade Among the topics covered will be the transition of Street Art into major galleries and museums and the globalization of Street Art. An open Q&A session will follow the presentation.
WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 19 AT 6:30PM at Doyle New York 175 East 87th Street New York City
The panel discussion is free and open to the public. Reservations required: events@DoyleNewYork.com or 212-427-4141, ext 600
BUFF MONSTER โ The signature โSuper Happy Pinkโ style of Buff Monster has been emblazoned across walls in nearly every major U.S. city, as well as cities throughout Europe. His work has also appeared in the The Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, and major contemporary arts and culture magazines, such as Juxtapoz and Nylon.
ADAM COST (AKA COST) โ Considered one of the Godfathers of the term โStreet Art,โ Adam Cost was instrumental in the shift from graffiti art โ typically spray paint on walls โ to wheatpasting and large paint roller pieces that attacked the walls of NYC throughout the 90s. Still producing work today, Cost has been involved in decades of Graffiti history.
HRAG VARTANIAN โ Founder of the tremendously influential arts and culture blog, Hyperallergic, Hrag has also written for The Huffington Post, NYFA Current and The Brooklyn Rail.

I hope it goes well and I'll be watching with interest on Tuesday (16th Oct).

New York's First Street Art Auction Happening This, by metropolis on Oct 16, 2012 21:45:13 GMT 1, Hi everyone, thanks for all the kind words and interest leading up to the sale. This went very well for us - the big picture is that while a few individual lots may not have performed well, this whole art movement is still a very new thing at US auction houses. So, with 70% sold and auction records set for a number of artists, this was a successful auction for us - a great first step that will allow us to do more in the future.
Some pieces that did very well include a world record for Margaret Kilgallen, a record for David Choe, strong sales for Barry McGee and Shepard Fairey, strong sales for some early graf artists like Duster, TKid and Cope2.
Thanks again for all your support!!!

Saw this print and was in the room. Looked like four faint fingertip marks on the top left side. Not sure if it was on the condition report, but I shied away from a bid because of it.
