Bonhams announced yesterday that they will be partnering with Montefiore Auction House to source lots for their Israeli Art and Judaica sale that is to be held in May in London:

Bonhams will hold their inaugural sale of modern and contemporary Israeli Art and Judaica in their New Bond Street saleroom on May 24, the only auction of its kind in the UK.

Bonhams have teamed up with an Israeli partner in this venture, the Montefiore Auction House in Tel Aviv (www.montefiore.co.il), which will help to source items for sale. Montefiore is situated in the centre of Tel Aviv, on 34 Nachmani Street, near the famous Rothschild Avenue. The Auction House holds several auctions each year at the prestigious Dan Hotel, which include both Israeli and international artworks: paintings, sculptures, photographs, graphic and paper art of past and present well-known artists.
