› Maria Miesenberger’s sculpture sold for a final price of SEK 939 000 – a new world record for the artist.

– The renowned photographs by Irving Penn and David Hockney attracted many bidders, timeless motifs by prominent artists, which are some of my favourites. The photography department contained many different motifs and forms of expression and technology. The photography department included provocative motifs as well as decorative and hopeful works. I am delighted to see that so many customers found photographs they liked, says Karin Aringer, Specialist Photography & Contemporary Art.

– It’s thrilling to see that Warhol continues to enchant collectors around the globe! There is an insatiable demand for quality works with good provenance and significant motifs. Today’s auction showed that Bukowskis’ continues to deliver results on an international level. The fine selection of works by Banksy, Hockney, Lichtenstein and Hirst, among others, attracted many bidders and collectors, says Marcus Kinge, Specialist Prints.

The contemporary design catalogue this season offered an eclectic mix of international and Swedish design.

– There was a great success for many of my personal favourites. Notably, the international department received much attention and was very successful. We saw a majority of bidders on the Pantonova set by Verner Panton and the unique lamp by Derossi & Ceretti, which both achieved high final prices. Bukowskis is very pleased that Swedish classics from Källemo found new owners, both here in Sweden and internationally, says Jonatan Jahn, Specialist Design.

Several iconic items were sold for market-leading prices such as the chairs El Dorado, Rex and El Rey by Theselius, as well as the iconic Concrete by Bohlin. Bukowskis also presented young contemporary designers, such as Niklas Runesson, Magniberg, Björn Friborg and Fredrik Paulsen, who attracted a new audience.

Scandinavia’s biannual Fine Art auction for contemporary art and design continues to manifest its leading position with increased international interest.
