Klein Leads Sotheby's London Contemporary Sale

May 4, 2010 by Marion Maneker

Sotheby’s announces an Yves Klein Sponge will be the lead in their June sale in London:

Sotheby’s London Contemporary Art Evening Sale on Monday, 28 June, 2010 will be spearheaded by a remarkable Yves Klein work, RE 49, Relief Eponge Bleu, which comes to auction from the collection HypoVereinsbank. This work is one of exceptionally few largescale blue Relief Eponge works remaining in private hands and was created at the climax of Klein’s artistic career. The painting will be offered for sale with an estimate of £4.5-6.5 million.
