Important Paintings & Contemporary Art
6:00PM 3 Abbey Street, Newton, Auckland
Art+Object announces that its second sale of 'Important Paintings and Contemporary Art' for 2025 will occur on August 19th. Art+Object continues to lead the national auction market for the sale of the finest twentieth and twenty-first century New Zealand artworks, as evidenced by our recent April 3rd auction, which resulted in a sale total in excess of 2.6 million and new record prices at auction for the work of Jeffrey Harris and Karl Maughan.
The catalogue and exhibition viewing for the April 3rd auction was widely regarded as representing a discerning and quality offering and early consignments for the August auction point to another quality offering. Early highlights include major works by Bill Hammond, Ralph Hotere, Paul Dibble and Frances Hodgkins.
Further consignments are now invited.
