Gavin Turk and Data Coming Soon to Auction Saboteur


Brick by Gavin Turk
Signed edition of 10 pieces
£500 including P&P


To be released tomorrow afternoon via the Auction Saboteur website are two new editions; a brick by former-YBA artist Gavin Turk and a limited edition canvas by Data. The brick, which comes signed and numbered from an edition of 10 pieces, can be read about below...
The Gavin Turk piece has been created to challenge the notion of genre, legitimacy and identity, this time from the perspective of street art. These signed bricks are also really significant as they are not sold through an agent or gallery but actually available direct from Gavin himself. This new development of artists maintaining financial independence from the gallery system represents a new chapter in the history or art. These bricks will come direct from Gavin Turks studio and all transactions will be between the buyer and Gavin Turks in-house studio team . The price is £500 including postage and packing which we believe is a complete steal an original piece of work from one of the former YBA's who's work now sells for very large sums indeed. First come first served. Available at www.auctionsaboteur.com very soon.

Bird of Paradise by Data
51 x 71 cm,
Spray Paint and Acrylic on Canvas
Edition of 10 unique pieces priced at £250 each

Also available will be an edition of 10 paintings by Data entitled 'Bird of Paradise', seen above. Each piece in the edition has been completely hand made through a combination of spray paint and acrylic - with his last release selling out in seconds, expect these to go quickly. As a special deal for FYW readers, pre-orders on both items can be made by sending an email to mark[at]auctionsaboteur.com with the name of the artist as the subject bar.
