Auction introduction: Sotheby’s upcoming October Contemporary Art Day Auction brings together an exciting group of works by some of the most sought-after artists of the moment. In the spirit of Frieze week, this season’s sale combines an exceptional selection of contemporary works, which is led by the earliest Spot Painting by Damien Hirst to come to auction. We are also delighted to be launching WWF’s Art For Your World campaign this October, with a selection of works from stand-out contemporary artists such as Tracey Emin, Anish Kapoor and Jadé Fadojutimi, the funds from which will be used to support key areas of WWF’s work that contribute to combatting climate change. Sotheby’s extensive international client network and unrivalled expertise consistently deliver market leading results through our wide-reaching selling platform. In light of this and the fantastic results of Sotheby’s October Contemporary Art Day Sale in 2020, which totaled £10.4 million, we invite you to share our success by consigning with us this Autumn in London.
