Christie’s, 25/06/2013 – La Evening Sale di Arte Contemporanea ha totalizzato 70,137,350 sterline. Nel giugno del 2012 invece, l’analoga asta ne aveva realizzate ben 132,819,400. Il catalogo era molto ricco e il totale raggiunto era stato il più alto per un’asta di contemporary in Europa. Questa sera, sono stati tredici i lotti rimasti invenduti, su un catalogo di 64. Il numero 6 “Marseille” di Nicolas de Staël offerto a £1/1,500,000, è arrivato a £3,085,875 ($4,739,904). Fu dipinto nel 1954, quando la natura e i paesaggi divennero i soggetti preferiti dell’artista per esplorare il colore e la forma. “SE 181” di Yves Klein, del 1961, partito da £1,400,000, è stato aggiudicato a £2,693,875 ($4,137,792). “Jetty” di Peter Doig, datato 1994, di scala monumentale (200 x 250cm.), era uno degli highlight del catalogo e le aspettative, anche di superare il record precedente, erano molto alte. Ha realizzato £7,341,875 ($11,277,119), quindi poco lontano dall’aggiudicazione di “The Architect’s Home in the Ravine” a £7,657,250 ($11,975,939), da Christie’s a Londra a febbraio 2013 (attuale record per l’artista in asta). Sempre suoi “Canoe Lake”, stimato £80/120,000 e passato di mano per £181,875 e “White Out” un olio di 144.8 x 114.5cm del 1992 venduto per £1,909,875 (st. £700/1,000,000). Una “Tazza di caffè” di Roy Lichtenstein nella stessa collezione milanese dagli anni Settanta e proveniente dalla galleria del mitico Leo Castelli, ha ricevuto molte offerte e ha superato, anche se non di molto, la stima massima con £2,805,875 (st. £1,5/2,000,000). Con £18,765,875, “Untitled” di Jean-Michel Basquiat è stato il top price della serata. Realizzato nel 1982 era presentato con “stima a richiesta”. Un altro “double portraits” (“Dustheads”) il mese scorso ha realizzato il prezzo record per l’artista di 48.8 milioni di dollari a New York. “A Walk to the Office”, un pastello su carta di Lucian Freud,è stato venduto per £505,875, secondo Judd Tully di Artinfo al mercante di dipinti antichi londinese Jean-Luc Baroni. Era presentato a £120/180,000. Molti rilanci per “Casino la colle” di Jean Dubuffet battuto a £ 946,675 (st. £500/700,000). Tra gli italiani in catalogo, Enrico Castellaniha superato il suo precedente record mondiale: “Superficie bianca n° 32” era stata aggiudicata da Sotheby’s a Milano nel maggio del 2010 per 960,750 € (1,177,908 $). Questa sera, una sua tela estroflessa, “Superficie bianca n. 34” realizzata sempre nel 1966, si è fermata a £1,853,875 ($2,847,552). Buoni risultati anche per Lucio Fontana: un “Concetto spaziale, Attese” (tre tagli su rosso) è partito da £550,000 ma si è fermato a £1,204,275. Si segnala infine un altro record mondiale: “Buscando La Luz IV” la monumentale scultura (800 x 275 x 215cm) realizzata nel 2001, solo un anno prima della sua scomparsa, da Eduardo Chillida ed esposta nel 2006 al Guggenheim di Bilbao, è stata battuta a £4,093,875 ($6,288,192) (record precedente dell’artista: $3,734,280)
