Doyle New York launching First Street Art Auctions

new york street art - live is beautiful
While street auctions with fine art have been going on for decades in Europe, Doyle New York now launching them in Manhattan. If you stay patient for another 2 months, you might be able to enter the first event with art featured alongside New York’s heavily traffic roads.

NY, the home of grafitti

Since both street art and graffiti was born in NYC, it’s suprising that fine art hasn’t made it to the streets until now. Estimated price for one of the main paintings, Mr. Brainwash’s “Life Is Beautiful – Alfred Hitchcock” (2008) is expected to sell for £10,370 to 12,970 ($16,000-20,000). If you want to buy art at Doyle’s action make sure to bring your credit card since cash is not accepted.

Doyle New York are currently seeking fine art and graffiti 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, Dash Snow, Futura 2000, Crash, Dondi White, and several others.

Further details about the street auctions in New York the 16th of October can be found at www.doylenewyork.com.
