Derek Boshier artwork available at Private Art Auctions
This Derek Boshier work, Untitled, 1965, features in an auction catalogue for new web-based auction house Private Art Auctions. As a fan of Boshier's work it really caught my eye.
Private Art Auctions want to provide cost effective buying and selling on their online platform, which basically consists of a catalogue of works available from private sellers but auctioned via them through a sealed bidding process. The key element of the sale is that they won't post sales results, so privacy is maintained for the seller and buyer.
As it is private you have sign up to view the catalogue and bid. The catalogue consists of a pdf, so I'm hoping they update their site so that you can browse through the lots online by the next auction.
Their first catalogue covers a great range of work from Modern British Art, Modern European, Post-War and Contemporary Art and even Urban Art. All the estimates seem realistic in the current climate and could be your chance to bag yourself a bargain.
Other work that might tempt me to bid would be prints including an artist proof of Richard Hamilton's Just what is it that made yesterday's homes so different, so appealing, Damien Hirst's The Soul on Jacob's Ladder, D*Face US Dollar, and a Nick Walker V for Vandal.
The Boshier piece produced in 1965 is crayon on paper and sized at 57.15 x 78.74cm. It is signed and dated in pencil on the lower right, and estimated at £600-800, with provenance from Robert Fraser Gallery. Get your bid in by midnight Friday 17 April to get your hands on this piece of Pop art.
