Lot 301
Lots 301-391 are from the Private Collection of Tim Ellis. A passionate collector of modern British art and sculpture, Tim Ellis amassed a breath-taking collection of hand selected works throughout his career in the City of London. Upon retirement Ellis moved from the idyllic Georgian architecture of London's West Square, where the collection had been a much loved part of his home, and made the difficult decision to disperse his collection and begin afresh. The artwork he amassed is a true reflection of his eclectic tastes, and unwavering interest in the modern and contemporary British art scene. He collected without bias or concern for the reputation of, or the market for, the artist, and without concern for the medium of the artwork. "I didn't buy for investment, or with a strategy: I've only acquired works that I have fallen in love with, that I couldn't resist, that I felt I just had to live with. I haven't even thought of myself as a collector." His refreshing approach to amassing this collection is apparent in the estimates given to the works, making them affordable additions to a home or collection. It is Ellis's hope that the dispersal of the collection will inspire a new generation of collectors to buy works by lesser-known and in his own word "criminally neglected" artists. His cardinal rule was to never buy a work that didn't fit into the back of a London taxi, a rule he broke for one lady, the artist who would be his future wife, and the catalyst for the move from West Square. Ellis says "Living with a painter has certainly had an effect on me as a collector: I now have a greater insight into and appreciation of a more language of paint. I also feel a greater commitment to support living artists." His new collection will comprise works from living artists whose integrity and dedication he admires.
