British Art at Sotheby

The market for works by 20th-century British artists has grown apace in recent years, and Sotheby's sale of 20th Century British Art on Thursday, March 10, 2005 is set to provide further indication of continuing demand. March's sale is replete with high quality works, many of which have been consigned for sale in response to recent high prices achieved in the field. Sotheby's sale of 20th Century British Art last November set no fewer than nine new auction records, many of these for works by post-war artists such as William Scott, Terry Frost, Kenneth Martin, Keith Vaughan, William Tillyer, John Wells and Alex MacKenzie. A number of these artists will be represented in the forthcoming sale with works that are set to generate similarly high levels of interest. For the full story - click the title Irish Art
