Chike Azuonye The Search for Answer, 2022 Watercolour on Paper Signed on Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About   My name is Chike Azuonye, a Nigeria-born British artist living and working in London, and have been active in the London art scene since the late 1980s. I am a graduate of Fine and Applied Arts from the University of Nigeria. I have a diploma in digital origination from the University of the Arts London. Also, I am a qualified artist working in schools. I have had several solo exhibitions and many group exhibitions both in London and abroad. My paintings are in public and private collections in Nigeria, UK, France, Finland and Italy. My paintings are remarkable for their depths of expression and thought. I believe that art is life, a celebration and made to be enjoyed and appreciated. My artworks go beyond the aesthetic and delve deep into the narrative of my African roots, as well as my philosophical leaning and pursuits. I am eclectic in my approach to painting, and challenge myself with the mastery of various artistic media, such as acrylic, oil, pastel, charcoal and watercolour, even though I paint mainly in oil and acrylic."   Education   University of Nigeria, Nsukka 1987 University of the Arts London 2005 University of London (Institute of Education) Artists in Schools Programme 1995   Select Exhibitions/Awards   2021/2022: Nigeria Art Society UK - "Legacies of Biafra" Touring Exhibition-Gallery Oldham, 2021: Combat Stress Secret Postcard Auction, Bohnams London 2018: Nigeria Art Society UK - "Legacies of Biafra" Art Exhibition, The Brunei Gallery SOAS 2017: Nigeria Art Society UK - "Ariya" Art Exhibition, WAC Gallery, London 2016: Nigeria Art Society UK - "Aurora" Art Exhibition, WAC Gallery, London   Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork   It is said that "it takes two to tango."

Adam Bridgland You Are The One That Matters Most, 2022 Digital Print with Unique Hand Drawn and Painted Element Signed on Verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About   Since graduating from the Royal College of Art in 2006, Bridgland has used a diverse range of materials and working methods to pursue an incisive and often witty exploration of distinctively British sentiments, externalising the underlying sense of loss and nostalgia that permeates our memories. Vignettes of British back-packer's holidays, old-fashioned bus-tours, and childhood seaside breaks that figure strongly in his visual repertoire are often tinged with this feeling of time having passed too quickly, our memories gradually fading. Twinned with this however, is an upbeat celebration of themes distilled from children's colouring books, paint-by-numbers kits, old public transport posters and kitsch postcards, which he imbues with the kaleidoscopic richness of carefully chosen and thickly applied primary colours. These everyday, almost mundane subjects are treated with the importance and status of emblems; centred in each work and often encapsulated within related text or target-like circular borders that focus our gaze.   Select Exhibitions/Awards   2021 Time Spent Together In Your Head, Jealous Gallery, London (solo). 2019 Royal Academy Summer Show.

Josh Rowell Gratitude on Pink, 2022 Acrylic Paint on Paper Signed on Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About   Josh Rowell generates his artistic vision by focusing on technological advances that shape our contemporary lives, communicating our increasingly mediated human interactions within the confines of visual art. The artist balances analogue techniques with the instantaneous nature of the digital age. This juxtaposition produces a language that explores and reshapes information, and celebrates the hand-made in a time that is increasingly being enveloped by the virtual. Since his emergence as an abstract painter, Rowell has expanded to sculpture, mixed media, and often times working with light, video, and sound installations. Despite these disparate media, everything is underpinned by a coding system, "everything can be reduced to a molecular binarism where all systems can be simplified to yes/no decisions," the artist explains.   Education   MFA Fine Art: Kingston University, 1st Class with Distinction Art Criticism: Central Saint Martins, Short Course Ba Hons Degree Fine Art: Kingston University, 1st Class with Distinction   Select Exhibitions/Awards   2022 Breaking Boundaries - (TWO PERSON), Firetti Contemporary, Dubai, UAE Arte Bergamo - Atipografia, Bergamo, Italy Volta New York - Blond Contemporary, New York City, USA (UPCOMING) London Art Fair - Blond Contemporary, London, UK (UPCOMING) Solo Exhibition - Tsivrikos Shake Gallery, London, UK (UPCOMING) Solo Exhibition - Atipografia, Arzignano, Italy (UPCOMING) 2021 Mythologies - Group Exhibition, Kopple Projects, Neon Gallery, London, UK NFT | IRL - Group Exhibition, Firetti Contemporary x Morrrow Collective, Dubai, UAE Metamorphosis - Group Exhibition, Neon Gallery, London, UK Volta Basel - Blond Contemporary, Basel, Switzerland Art Verona - Atipografia, Verona, Italy WOP Art - Atipografia, Lugano, Switzerland 2020 False Memory - Group Exhibition, Rugby Town Art Museum, Rugby, UK Salon Acme - (SOLO) Daniel Benjamin Gallery, Mexico City, Mexico Dentons Art Prize - (JOINT WINNER) Private Exhibition, London, UK The Freud/Jung Letters - (SOLO) Moyshen Gallery, San Miguel De Allende, Mexico Kinesis - Group Exhibition, Kopple Projects, Neon Gallery, London, UK Virtual Room II - (ONLINE SOLO) Daniel Benjamin Gallery, London, UK Reset, Tales From The Vanguard - (ONLINE) Group Exhibition, Programa Taide with Colección Aldebarán Arte Verona - (ONLINE) Atipografia, Verona, Italy WOP Art - (ONLINE) Atipografia, Lugano, Switzerland   You must not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any works.

Mel Reese Tiny Bay Sunset, 2022 Acrylic on Paper Signed on Verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About   Mel Reese is a Brooklyn-based abstract painter. She is an observational artist inspired by formalism. Lines, shapes, colors, and textures are as central to her work as is the process of creating them. A complex layering of these abstract elements allows her work to echo the representational through symbolic formalism.   Education   2017 MFA Fine Arts, School of Visual Arts, New York City, NY 2014 Post-Baccalaureate Certificate, San Francisco Art Institute, San Francisco, CA 2013 B.S.

Observations are distilled down, removing the extraneous, to capture the essence of human interaction with natural forms. Each layer considers the negative space, which she paints with liquid tape. Once sealed, a shape is revealed in the positive space of the canvas, into which she pours acrylic paint and drag across the canvas with a squeegee. Every gesture creates new lines and textures. The liquid tape removed, a monochromatic shape with a precise edge is revealed. Repeating this process, Reese methodically builds up sheer layers of monochromatic forms. Each new layer is informed by all previous layers.   You must not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any works.

Before his international recognition as a pioneering NFT visual artist, ThankYouX's stencilled public pieces from the late 2000s drew inspiration from the works of Andy Warhol, nodding to the Pop Art luminary's technique of photographic silkscreen printing. Themes of Americana and pop culture permeate the present two works, Starting Somewhere and Purpose. Like Warhol, himself a champion of integrating new technologies including computers into his art, ThankYouX's artworks challenge the binary nature of the traditional art versus digital art debate. The present works attest to ThankYouX's dexterity as an artist; they embrace materiality, the theme of constant change, and technological innovation. Amongst the artist's studio works, his canvases with an embedded digital screen have elicited excitement both with online crypto art communities and the wider contemporary art audience. ThankYouX has honed this technique in recent years to express multiple layers of a story, and to allow the audience to switch between a microcosmic and macrocosmic perspective. Whilst the canvas provides a commentary on how an individual's choices can lead to new frontiers in life, the NFT display extrapolates this idea further by inviting the viewer into a new visual plane and, metaphorically, a new dimension. In the artist's words, 'Starting Somewhere expresses being unafraid to venture into new unknowns. Not letting obstacles hold you back from new ideas. To get to where you want to be, you must start somewhere.' This committed and passionate attitude reverberates throughout ThankYouX's technical approach in the present work. The atmospheric swathes of white, grey and black are disrupted by thick flashes of energetic cerulean and crimson. The dramatic impasto imbues the canvas with an instinctive character, and the cube motifs allude to the artist's digital NFT artworks as well as his larger murals painted on the streets of Los Angeles. True to his curiosity and innovative nature, ThankYouX includes unconventional materials in his works – a practice which echoes the masters of Neo-Dadaism such as John Chamberlain, César, and Christo and Jeanne-Claude. In Starting Somewhere, ThankYouX uses a unique, gold-coloured material called aluminised polyimide which was gifted to him by NASA. This material is typically used to protect satellites from the Sun as they orbit the Earth. In combining the realms of technology and painting, ThankYouX's works amplify the interdependency of mankind. Pioneering a hybrid of physical art and digital art, he juxtaposes blockchain based technology and digital displays with canvases and paint. The two works on offer effectively convey the tension and liminal feelings one encounters when pursuing a life-changing objective.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

SLASKY (Artena, Rome, 1972)."San Michele", 2020.Digital art on canvas.Signed.Limited edition 1/1.Unframed.Certificate of authenticity enclosed.The artwork will be sent in a tube.This work will be available approximately 15 days after the payment has been made.Measurements: 150 x 100 cm.Fascinated by the baroque painting of Caravaggio, the digital artist Slasky creates classic works of art using digital art techniques. With his classic neo-urban style, he unites tradition and modernism, bringing the protagonists of the original artworks into modern-day social and artistic environments. By inserting the characters from the original works into contemporary spaces, he has created new images that send completely different messages to the original concept and idea with which they were created by their authentic creators, strikingly capturing the viewer's attention and, at the same time, requiring a level of collaboration from the viewer in order to be understood.The works have an immediate sense of familiarity, but presented with an injection, sometimes explosion, of colour and life that absorbs them with richness and modernity. Details take centre stage in his works, using contrasting colour techniques, textured backgrounds and screen printing to create the same subject matter in a variety of ways, separating it from its traditional backgrounds.

James Cauty (British, b. 1956) Reface Digital print on paper with gold pen (Hirst + Face)   Signed to the verso and numbered 6/13 to the front 70 x 61 cm (27 x 24 in) each one Over a diverse and productive career Cauty has distinguished himself as a musician, record producer, artist and cultural provocateur through fusions of high art, low art and popularist mediums to spectacular effect. As a teenager Cauty drew the intricate multi-million selling Lord of the Rings poster for British retailer Athena. With Alex Patterson as The Orb and with Bill Drummond as The KLF and the Justified Ancients of Mu Mu, Cauty co-wrote and produced a string of global top ten hits. As The K-Foundation, Cauty and Drummond staged a series of seminal actions including the 1994 K Foundation Art Award for Worst Artist of the Year and the K Foundation Burn A Million Quid. From experimental sonic weapons (the Advanced Acoustic Armaments), to anti-Iraq war postage stamps (Stamps of Mass Destruction), and model making (Riot In A Jam Jar and the Aftermath Dislocation Principle) Cauty’s work combines dissent, cultural subversion and gleeful level of high humour. His roguish and voluble approach has earned him a cult following for work that remains radical, responsive and darkly comical. He produces work that draws on and responds to contemporary culture, sampling it and selling it back as recorded realities. In 2013 Cauty completed The Aftermath Dislocation Principle (ADP), a vast 1:87 scale-model landscape (equivalent to 1 sq mile in miniature) which has been completely looted, destroyed, burnt and is devoid of life apart from 3000 or so model police that attend this apocalyptic aftermath. In 2015 the ADP was installed in Banksy’s Dismaland in Weston Super Mare. This lot is also sold subject to Artists Resale Rights, details of which can be found in our Terms and Conditions.

Zdzislaw Beksinski (1929 Sanok, Polen - 2005 Warschau)Turmbau zu Babel, Öl auf Hartfaserplatte, 92,5 cm x 74 cm, verso signiert, 74 datiert, 11 nummeriert, leicht craqueliert, partiell kleine weiße Farbspritzer, partiell leichte oberflächliche Kratzer.Erschreckend, beängstigend und geradezu albtraumhaft sind die Werke des polnischen Künstlers Zdzislaw Beksinski. In seiner düsteren Formensprache bezieht er die Schattenseiten des Lebens nicht nur ein, sondern setzt sie ganz deutlich in den Fokus. Der gelernte Architekt begann sein Schaffen als junger Künstler mit Schwarz-Weiß-Fotografien, wodurch er rasch Bekanntheit erlangte und Preise in internationalen Wettbewerben gewann. Schon diese frühen Arbeiten waren auf seine werktypische Atmosphäre getrieben. Eigens erlebte Schicksalsschläge in der Kunst zu verarbeiten ist eine Methode, die sich einige Künstler angeeignet haben, so auch Beksinski. Morbide und visionär zugleich zeigt der Künstler offen seine Wunden und die der gesamten Menschheit. Als er sich in den 1970er Jahren der Malerei zuwendet, widmet er sich ausschließlich der figurativen Malerei, darunter fällt auch das Gemälde des roten Turms. Es zeigt wohl den "Turmbau zu Babel" - jene biblische Geschichte, in der Menschen einen Turm hoch zu Gott bauen wollten. Doch ließ Gott eben diesen einstürzen und gab ihnen verschiedene Sprachen, sodass sie nicht mehr miteinander kommunizieren konnten und sprachlich voneinander getrennt wurden. Der Buchstabe "Ain", der weit oben am Turm gesetzt wurde und im hebräischen ähnlich ausgesprochen wird wie das englische "Eye", könnte auf das Auge Gottes anspielen. Zudem symbolisiert dieser Buchstabe oft auch die Bibel selbst. Dieses Werk zeigt die Richtung seiner tiefgründigen Odyssee durch die Unterwelt der Traum- und Gedankenwelt. Wahre Gefühle, Angst und Verzweiflung können genauso wie die Suche nach einem Sinn des Lebens meist in Träumen tatsächlich bildhaft stattfinden und oft auch nur dort von der eigenen Psyche verarbeitet werden. Denn hier fließen die Bilder ineinander über, ohne alltägliche Grenzen oder Beschränkungen durch den geregelten Tagesablauf. Diese gestalterische Lösung hat sich Beksinski über Jahrzehnte seines Schaffens in verschiedensten Gattungen, über Fotografie, Zeichnungen, Malerei bis hin zu Digitalmedia-Kunst zu eigen gemacht, um wohl nicht nur für sich selbst, sondern auch für den Betrachter alle Oberflächen des Alltags aufzubrechen und offen auch auf die Schattenseiten des Lebens zu blicken. Zdzislaw Beksinski (1929 Sanok, Poland - 2005 Warsaw)Tower of Babel, oil on hardboard, 92.5 cm x 74 cm, verso signed, 74 dated, 11 numbered, slightly craquelated, partially small white splashes of paint, partially slight scratches on the surface.The works of the Polish artist Zdzislaw Beksinski are frightening, scary and downright nightmarish. In his gloomy formal language, he not only includes the darker sides of life, but puts them very clearly in focus. The trained architect began his work as a young artist with black-and-white photographs, which quickly brought him fame and won him prizes in international competitions. Even these early works were driven by his work-typical atmosphere. To process one's own experienced strokes of fate in art is a method that some artists have adopted, including Beksinski. Morbid and visionary at the same time, the artist openly shows his wounds and those of all humanity.When he turned to painting in the 1970s, he devoted himself exclusively to figurative painting, including the painting of the Red Tower. It probably shows the "Tower of Babel" - the biblical story in which people wanted to build a tower high up to God. But God caused this very tower to collapse and gave them different languages, so that they could no longer communicate with each other and were linguistically separated from each other. The letter "Ain", which was placed high up on the tower and is pronounced similarly to the English "Eye" in Hebrew, could allude to the eye of God. Moreover, this letter often symbolises the Bible itself.This work shows the direction of his profound odyssey through the underworld of dreams and thoughts. True feelings, fear and despair, just like the search for a meaning to life, can mostly actually take place pictorially in dreams and can often only be processed there by one's own psyche. For here the images flow into one another, without everyday boundaries or restrictions imposed by the regular daily routine. Beksinski has adopted this creative solution over decades of his work in various genres, from photography, drawings and painting to digital media art, in order to break open all the surfaces of everyday life not only for himself but also for the viewer and to look openly at the darker sides of life.

"SVCCY" MATTEO SUCCI (Ravenna, 1997). "Game over", 2019.Digital collage art on aluminium.Edition 1/15.Size: 40 x 40 cm.Svccy is a self-taught digital artist who creates totally unpublished images using 2d and 3d graphic programs. His works are inspired by the art of digital collage, permeated by the Vaporwave visual current developed during the first decade of the 2000s. This trend born on the Internet embodies a retro style influenced in part by "chillwave" artists, who developed an imaginary associated with the use of images dominated by violet and fuchsia colours, the use of Greek sculptures, palm trees, pixel art, sunsets and references to Japanese culture at the end of the millennium.In contrast to the classic images of the genre, Svccy tends towards a darker, more introspective variant. The images reflect the human condition in today's society. The human figure is represented by statues, often faceless or covered by objects, symbolising the total lack of identity of the individual, subjugated by technology and the ultra-consumerist society. References to Rodin's classical and neoclassical sculpture intersect with post-apocalyptic scenarios of large abandoned, or rather finished and never used, shopping malls.All his works are processed by computer creating "collage-art" by joining images that apparently have nothing between them, where light and a good angle of vision are fundamental.Svccy aims to show us the reality in which man lives, an insubstantial, unreal reality, which is based on models of behaviour imposed by the media, which control our lifestyles through fashion and advertising, making us believe that we live a free and self-determined life when in reality it is only an illusion.

CECILIA CASTELLI (Varese, 1991)."Lovers", 2021.Digital art on fine art paper.Limited edition, 1/5.Size: 59,4 x 42 cm.Cecilia Castelli studied product design at the NABA in Milan before discovering graphic design and, above all, illustration, which has become her full-time job. She has already done work for clients such as Adobe and Facebook, IKEA, Polaroid, and has collaborated with several magazines such as Cosmopolitan, Vogue Italia, TIME Magazine or The Daily Telegraph.Her illustrations are full of passion and a touch of irony, depicting the female human comedy with minimal shapes and vivid colours. Whether they are women in the throes of motherhood or girls with grown-up dreams, the protagonists of Cecilia's stories remain, at any age, "good girls" at heart, optimistic and full of hope.She creates intriguing images for both editorial and commercial purposes with the aim of telling a story in a simple way. Her work has been described as bright, optimistic and full of humanity.

§ RACHEL MACLEAN (SCOTTISH 1987-) ST. GEORGE AND THE MONSTER - 2013 Archival pigmented digital print, 3/10, signed, numbered and inscribed in pencil verso(the sheet 92cm x 61cm (36.25in x 24in), unframed)Footnote: Note: A rising star in Scottish Contemporary Art, Rachel Maclean studied at Edinburgh College of Art, where she first started to experiment with green-screen technology. Her work has evolved and expanded in scope but her underlying themes continue; the sourcing of imagery from fairy tales, cartoons and popular culture and using them to explore the darker, dystopian side of our contemporary culture. The work is seductive and unsettling, the saccharine sweet aesthetic initially masking the deeper, darker tone of her work. At her 2021 mini-retrospective at Jupiter Artland, her works were accompanied by a ‘Parental Warning,’ that although children may be enticed by the visuals, the themes of her videos as they unfolded would not necessarily be appropriate. In 2014 her work focussed on the interweaving of national history, identity and politics in the run up to the hotly contested and highly emotive Scottish Independence Referendum. Now based in Glasgow, Maclean has exhibited her work internationally, representing Scotland at the Venice Biennale in 2017 and most recently had a significant exhibition at Jupiter Artland, the privately-owned sculpture park outside Edinburgh, to celebrate the opening of her first permanent installation there.

1980 Jaguar XJ12 5.3 Auto Series IIIMake: Jaguar Model: XJ12 Year: 1980Mileage: 20272VIN: JBALW3CC317158Configuration: Right Hand DriveRegistration: NNG484VTransmission: automatic 5,343cc. Fitted with rare P digital engine. This saloon was previously owned by the captain of a ship named Bluebird which was supplied new to Sir Malcolm Campbell in 1935. Its big moment in history though came in 1940 when it was one of the "little ships" involved in ferrying British troops into and back out of Dunkirk. The ship was entered into preservation in the 1960s and in 1980 was acquired by well known art dealer, Martin Summer, who appointed a full time skipper. In 1990 Summer bought this Jaguar for his skipper to commemorate a milestone in his life. When the skipper was at sea, the XJ12 was stored in a warehouse in Southampton. A book was written about the Bluebird by Martin Summer. When the skipper sold the XJ12 to its fourth owner in 2003, a commemoration was signed in the opening page. In August 2021, the car was featured in Jaguar World where it is described as "It's not perfect, but the patina is beautiful. It smells and feels like a 41-year old XJ should - old and slightly careworn, but completely serviceable. Even the chrome is original." The article runs over three pages and is include in the file. It registers seven owners from new. Comes with the signed book, Bluebird, some receipts, MoTs, handbook, wallet and various documents. The mileage is recorded at 20,272.

JULIAN OPIE (B. 1958)Wooden Painting 16 2006 signed on the reverseenamel on wood90 by 61.2 cm.35 7/16 by 24 1/8 in.This work was executed in 2006.Footnotes:ProvenanceAcquired directly from the artist by the present owner in 2007Contemporary British artist Julian Opie is widely recognised for his distinctive depictions of figures, portraits, and landscapes. Born in London in 1958, Opie graduated from Goldsmiths College in 1982, studying under Michael-Craig Martin, and was quickly associated with the New British Sculpture movement. From the 1980s into 1990s he transitioned from painted steel sculptures inspired by Pop Art and Minimalism into a simpler graphic style, which he employs across a diverse range of media, from paintings to animation, continually pushing the boundaries of traditional artistic practice.Opie plays with ways of seeing through reinterpreting the vocabulary of everyday life; his reductive style evokes both a visual and spatial experience of the world around us. Alongside his clear influence in Pop aesthetics, particularly the work of Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein, Opie draws further inspiration from classical portraiture, Egyptian hieroglyphs, Greek mythology, Japanese woodblock prints, as well as public signage, information boards, traffic signs and even the Tintin cartoons by Hergé. Through connecting the clean visual language of modern life with the fundamentals of art history, Opie has produced a distinctive and unique style in his body of work which have appeared in cities and sculpture parks around the world.Perhaps more widely recognised for his portraits and figurative studies, Opie reduces his subjects to essential lines created by thick black outlines and filled in with solid areas of flat, vibrant colour. His figurative subjects are de-personalised; he either chooses to render a featureless face using just a blank circle, or otherwise only depicts very basic facial features using dots and lines in the simplest expression of form. He chooses to differentiate his figures through colour of backgrounds, hairstyles, position of head, light reflected in the eyes and accessories. This depersonalised style creates an ambiguous sense of subjectivity in the sitter and provokes the viewer to question what makes a portrait of a person distinct and how they can relate to it. Bonhams are delighted to be offering three works by Julian Opie - two figurative pieces and a dynamic digital landscape of Lake Kawaguchi in Japan. Aniela 2, executed in 2011, is a portrait of the artist's wife. Set against a vibrant red background, Aniela is not submitting to the viewer; she appears to us in the nude, loosely holding a piece of drapery, captured in a private moment. Aniela was a regular sitter for the Opie and resulted in a series inspired by Renaissance and neoclassical paintings of Greek goddesses such as Aphrodite. In this series, Opie portrayed his wife in the nude occasionally wrapped in drapery which has been reduced to its most essential elements or holding a Grecian urn. Indeed, in this present work we can draw parallels to classicism and his interest in interpreting Greek mythology. Julian Opie's style increased in popularity after he designed the cover of English Britpop band Blur's best of album which was released in 2000.The four-part portrait is not only one of the most famous album covers to be produced but is considered as an iconic artwork. The portraits of the four band members of Blur were bought by the Art Fund in 2001 and now reside in the collection of the National Portrait Gallery in London. Today, Julian Opie is considered one of the leading contemporary artists in the world and his work is exhibited extensively in galleries and museums around the world, including in the Essl Collection, Vienna, the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, Israel Museum, Jerusalem, Takamatsu City Museum of Art, Japan, Museum of Modern Art, New York, Institute of Contemporary Arts, Boston, among many others.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: * AR* VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.AR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

DAMIEN HIRST (B. 1965)8435. Dilemma Here 2016 signed, titled, dated 2016, numbered 8435 and stamped on the reverseenamel paint on handmade paper21.4 by 29.8 cm.8 7/16 by 11 3/4 in.This work is number 8435 from a series of 10,000 unique examples. The corresponding non-fungible token has been burned.Footnotes:ProvenanceHENI, LondonAcquired directly from the above by the present owner in 2021Damien Hirst has often been considered the definitive enfant terrible and impresario of contemporary art since his monumental rise to global stardom in the 1990s as the figurehead of the Young British Artists (YBAs). His exhibitions and ventures have consistently drawn broad acclaim and criticism, such is the nature of his practice to polarise and activate the passions of his audience. He has never shied away from ideas that would be deemed too unwieldy or all-encompassing for the purview of fine art, approaching life, death, the psyche, and the nature of mythos with a confidence that is nothing short of inspirational. In such a vein, presented here is Hirst's most recent and ingenious project: his first NFT 'drop', titled The Currency. Launched in 2021 and endorsed by Mark Carney, former Bank of England governor, Hirst produced 10,000 unique works – attractive abstract spot paintings on heavyweight paper that are instantly recognisable as Hirst's iconic motif – that exist both as the physical work and a corresponding Non-Fungible Token (NFT). Upon purchase, the buyer was forced to choose between the physical or the digital asset, with the leftover piece being destroyed or burned. The entire 10,000-piece drop sold out and has since become one of the most appreciating and highly sought-after works by NFT and art collectors alike. The work presented here is 8435. Dilemma Here – a physical piece whose corresponding NFT has been burned and only the tangible work remains. Ranked by machine-learning artificial intelligence, the pieces are graded on their colour composition, the weight of the paper, as well as their titles. 8435 boasts an exceptional ranking of 103rd for green pigments, 167th for number of words in the title, as well as 2521st for weight, giving the piece an appealing mass for its handsome scale. The present work represents one of the most exciting enterprises by Hirst, himself one of the pioneers of contemporary artistic practice in the 21st century, to challenge not only the hegemony of capital and financial instruments, but also of the nascent divide between the physical and virtual worlds.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ARAR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

The work draws parallels between the youth of 'then' and 'now'. The angst is the same but the pressures are different. Basing work on illustrations from the past helps to lend it an authenticity but also highlights the differences between two timeframes.

Mandy Franca Dusk I Textile, Oil Pastel and C Type on Paper Signed on Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About As a multidisciplinary artist Mandy Franca researches the influence of the digital realm on artefacts, mundanity and the influence of migration. Franca's work is an ongoing investigation into the notion of interconnectedness, drawing from life experiences which are informed by growing up in a cross-cultural environment and her personal archive. Mandy actively researches and observes the meaning of mundanity to give eternal value to seemingly insignificant places and objects. As a result, the notion of preserving languages, traditions, domestic settings and everyday objects in a state of flux - meaning - digital and physical due to digitalization and globalization, takes precedence in her work. Franca's priority is to bring the individual experience into a broader communal context and show the parallels between our common needs, objects and experiences with the notion of care as a fundamental aspect of being. As an artist she subverts and challenges the traditional application of printmaking by experimenting with a range of artistic mediums which intersect at painting, photography, print, drawing, collage, video, sculpture and installation using the photographic image and mark-making as a recurring element. With these techniques Franca wants to challenge ideas of digital materiality, painting and the reproductive image.   Education 2018 - 2020: Master of Arts (Distinction) | Print | Royal College of Art | London, UK 2011 - 2016: Bachelor of Arts | Fashion | Willem de Kooning Academy | Rotterdam, NL 2005 - 2009: Vocational Education | Media Design | Graphic Lyceum | Rotterdam, NL   Select Exhibitions/Awards 2021: Sequences 05 | Group Exhibition | The Who Gallery 2021: Warm Vessels in Search at Sunset | Group Exhibition | Harlesden High School 2021: Hotsheet 2020 | Group Exhibition | Downstairs Brixton 2021: Holding Space | Group Exhibition | Subject Matter 2020: Lick the Future | Collection/Group Exhibition | Where's the Frame 2020: London Grads Now - Royal College of Art | Group Exhibition | Saatchi Gallery 2020: Royal College of Art & Slade External Degree Show | Group Exhibition | Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery 2020: In Touch | Virtual Group Show | Danielle Arnaud Gallery 2020: Final, Not Over: Session 3 | Group Exhibition | Unit 1 Gallery Workshop 2020: Against the Grain | Group Exhibition | Southwark Park Galleries 2019: 20:20 Insight | Group Exhibition | Soho Revue Gallery GRANTS/AWARDS 2020 - Augustus Martin Prize 2020 - HIGH prize for Creative Excellence (shortlisted) 2019 - Koningin Sophiafonds 2019 - Fundatie van de Vrijvrouwe van Renswoude 2018 - Prins Bernhard Cultuurfonds   Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork For Art on a Postcard, Mandy Franca made a series of 3 cards with the title Dusk.

Jo Bradford Portal: Sky Cameraless Photography Signed on Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About Jo Bradford was born in Hertfordshire, UK, and raised in South Africa. She now lives on Dartmoor, UK with her two children. Jo has worked with experimental, alternative process and cameraless photographs in her colour darkroom for over two decades. Jo has exhibited widely and has works in public and private collections around the world. Her work is created using only the primary tools of analogue photography, with precisely timed flashes of light captured on light sensitive paper in utter darkness. These detailed working methods produce in essence a kind of pure photography - not representational of the external physical world, but acutely resonant of something entirely more abstract and possibly internal. Whatever the resonance, there is a subversion, or inversion of the photographic process as it's commonly understood.   Education Master's Degree (Distinction) in Photography: Critical Practice from University College Falmouth in 2004   Select Exhibitions/Awards Exhibitions Photo London.

Undertaken in a completely black darkroom, in a time-consuming process requiring decades of practiced hand movements to mask light exposures and with continuous precise adjustments made to an array of dials and buttons not visible to the eye my work begins. Combining this with an understanding of the way colours mix in light to create primary and tertiary colours, and through a lot of trial and error and endless patience, hands and masks are used to create areas of shadow, which alter the path of light on its way to the paper during the brief flashes of light exposure. This non-figurative work subverts the established fidelity of the photograph as a record of an object, referring only to itself, without seeking to illustrate or represent anything. In a sense, it is a self-portrait made of photography, whereby the photographic means becomes the object and the medium becomes the subject.

The relationship between drawing and surface is important whether that be watercolour paper, women's magazines, digital images or domestic linen. These drawings are part of an on-going examination of hair in all its beauty and uncanniness. They are concerned with the sense of loss and otherness that is present when hair is removed from the body. In these images the figure is absent but the woman is nevertheless present; represented by her hair.

Marcelina Amelia Moonlight Watercolour and Acrylic on Paper Signed on Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About Marcelina Amelia is a contemporary artist, based between the UK and Poland, working with mixed media approaches to print, painting and drawing. She often draws inspirations from her Polish heritage, looking to religious iconography and folk tales, as well as childhood memories, the power of dreams, spirituality, sexuality, and the human condition. According to her Mum, Marcelina started drawing before she could properly speak. She has been featured in publications including Booooooom, Bomb, Art Maze, Create Magazine, Digital Arts, Vogue, Refinery29, The NY Times, Der Spiegel and Ballad Of Magazine and is also a founder of art-brand Mesh Studio. She exhibits work throughout the UK as well as internationally and was a featured artist at the 2017 edition of the London Illustration Fair and led The Big Draw sketch walk for Apple. In 2018 Marcelina was Saatchi Art's featured 'Artist in Spotlight' at The Other Art Fair in Bristol and her artwork adorned thousands of tote bags promoting the fair. This year Marcelina was also a featured artist at the Affordable Art Fair Battersea's Live Art event. Added to that her work was displayed at Boxpark Croydon, made an appearance at 2018 London Fashion Week and she has been invited to take part in the infamous 'Art on a Postcard' secret auction alongside some big names in the art world. Rebecca Wilson, the chief curator at Saatchi Art, highlighted Marcelina as an artist to invest in at her talk at The Other Art Fair in London in 2018. In addition, Saatchi curator Monty Preston said she was "unquestionably an artist on the rise" Marcelina says, 'I like to play at the tense borders between lust and innocence; joy and sadness; fun and pain. My interest in juxtaposition comes from my origins and fascination with East European culture which was eloquently described by Grayson Perry as 'nowhere else could such horrific grief be met with such fairly-tale romanticism'. I tend to utilise nature as a metaphor for everyday feelings and headaches. My recent work also dwells into themes of self acceptance, body positivity, representations of the female sexuality, gender, migration, and society. Although some of the subjects I take on are often quite dark I like to think that there is some humour and light in my finished artwork.'

About Marcelina Amelia is a contemporary artist, based between the UK and Poland, working with mixed media approaches to print, painting and drawing. She often draws inspirations from her Polish heritage, looking to religious iconography and folk tales, as well as childhood memories, the power of dreams, spirituality, sexuality, and the human condition. According to her Mum, Marcelina started drawing before she could properly speak. She has been featured in publications including Booooooom, Bomb, Art Maze, Create Magazine, Digital Arts, Vogue, Refinery29, The NY Times, Der Spiegel and Ballad Of Magazine and is also a founder of art-brand Mesh Studio. She exhibits work throughout the UK as well as internationally and was a featured artist at the 2017 edition of the London Illustration Fair and led The Big Draw sketch walk for Apple. In 2018 Marcelina was Saatchi Art's featured 'Artist in Spotlight' at The Other Art Fair in Bristol and her artwork adorned thousands of tote bags promoting the fair. This year Marcelina was also a featured artist at the Affordable Art Fair Battersea's Live Art event. Added to that her work was displayed at Boxpark Croydon, made an appearance at 2018 London Fashion Week and she has been invited to take part in the infamous 'Art on a Postcard' secret auction alongside some big names in the art world. Rebecca Wilson, the chief curator at Saatchi Art, highlighted Marcelina as an artist to invest in at her talk at The Other Art Fair in London in 2018. In addition, Saatchi curator Monty Preston said she was "unquestionably an artist on the rise" Marcelina says, 'I like to play at the tense borders between lust and innocence; joy and sadness; fun and pain. My interest in juxtaposition comes from my origins and fascination with East European culture which was eloquently described by Grayson Perry as 'nowhere else could such horrific grief be met with such fairly-tale romanticism'. I tend to utilise nature as a metaphor for everyday feelings and headaches. My recent work also dwells into themes of self acceptance, body positivity, representations of the female sexuality, gender, migration, and society. Although some of the subjects I take on are often quite dark I like to think that there is some humour and light in my finished artwork.'

Mandy Franca Dusk III Textile, Oil Pastel and C Type on Paper Signed on Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About As a multidisciplinary artist Mandy Franca researches the influence of the digital realm on artefacts, mundanity and the influence of migration. Franca's work is an ongoing investigation into the notion of interconnectedness, drawing from life experiences which are informed by growing up in a cross-cultural environment and her personal archive. Mandy actively researches and observes the meaning of mundanity to give eternal value to seemingly insignificant places and objects. As a result, the notion of preserving languages, traditions, domestic settings and everyday objects in a state of flux - meaning - digital and physical due to digitalization and globalization, takes precedence in her work. Franca's priority is to bring the individual experience into a broader communal context and show the parallels between our common needs, objects and experiences with the notion of care as a fundamental aspect of being. As an artist she subverts and challenges the traditional application of printmaking by experimenting with a range of artistic mediums which intersect at painting, photography, print, drawing, collage, video, sculpture and installation using the photographic image and mark-making as a recurring element. With these techniques Franca wants to challenge ideas of digital materiality, painting and the reproductive image.   Education 2018 - 2020: Master of Arts (Distinction) | Print | Royal College of Art | London, UK 2011 - 2016: Bachelor of Arts | Fashion | Willem de Kooning Academy | Rotterdam, NL 2005 - 2009: Vocational Education | Media Design | Graphic Lyceum | Rotterdam, NL   Select Exhibitions/Awards 2021: Sequences 05 | Group Exhibition | The Who Gallery 2021: Warm Vessels in Search at Sunset | Group Exhibition | Harlesden High School 2021: Hotsheet 2020 | Group Exhibition | Downstairs Brixton 2021: Holding Space | Group Exhibition | Subject Matter 2020: Lick the Future | Collection/Group Exhibition | Where's the Frame 2020: London Grads Now - Royal College of Art | Group Exhibition | Saatchi Gallery 2020: Royal College of Art & Slade External Degree Show | Group Exhibition | Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery 2020: In Touch | Virtual Group Show | Danielle Arnaud Gallery 2020: Final, Not Over: Session 3 | Group Exhibition | Unit 1 Gallery Workshop 2020: Against the Grain | Group Exhibition | Southwark Park Galleries 2019: 20:20 Insight | Group Exhibition | Soho Revue Gallery GRANTS/AWARDS 2020 - Augustus Martin Prize 2020 - HIGH prize for Creative Excellence (shortlisted) 2019 - Koningin Sophiafonds 2019 - Fundatie van de Vrijvrouwe van Renswoude 2018 - Prins Bernhard Cultuurfonds   Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork For Art on a Postcard, Mandy Franca made a series of 3 cards with the title Dusk.

Jessie Stevenson From Different Heights The Restless Gleam Study 2 Acrylic and Gouache on Paper Signed on Verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About Born 1993, Norwich UK Stevenson's practice explores the potency of the North Norfolk landscape; both as a poetic and philosophical gesture. A download of physical energy, she embodies the sensory experience of nature with daring mark making and uninhibited movement in her paintings. She draws inspiration from the colours and techniques of Old Masters including J. M. W. Turner and Eugène Delacroix, as well as the Romantic poetry of William Wordsworth. These are combined with contemporary pop culture references, incorporating colourways from fashion advertising and television series such as the period drama Bridgerton. Working from digital moving images, contemporary pigments, and frenetic 'colour beginnings' in paint which fill her numerous sketchbooks, the artist reinvigorates the traditional landscape genre.   Education 2019 - 2022 Masters in Fine Art Painting, Slade School of Fine Art 2013 - 2017 BA Hon Fine Art, Central Saint Martins 2011 - 2013 Foundation Diploma and Painting Course, Leith School of Art   Select Exhibitions/Awards   SOLO EXHIBITIONS 2021 Way Out East, Sapling Gallery, London   SELECTED GROUP EXHIBITIONS 2022 The Pump House, Berntson Bhattacharjee, Battersea Park, London 2021 Thesmophoria, Soho Revue X Purslan 2021 Stäying Alive, Berntson Bhattacharjee, Falsterbo, Sweden 2021 Metis, Purslane 2021 Domesticity and the Feminine, Procrastinarting 2021 To be a shell, Queensrollahouse, London 2021 The Artists' Dozen Charity Auction, The Artists Contemporary X Procrasinarting 2021 Mnemysone, Purslane 2021 Cutting at lemons for freckles, Skippings Gallery, Great Yarmouth 2021 Colour and Poetry online exhibition, The Slade School of Fine Art 2021 Berntson Bhattacharjee X Women's Aid Charity Auction 2020 The Ing Discerning Eye, Tabish Khan Art Critic's Choice 2020 The Heart of Light, The Silence, Online group show 2020 Slade Runner, ASC Gallery, London 2020 SAVAGE 2020, The Crypt Gallery, London 2019 Peacock Yard Sale, Kennington, London 2018 Inhabiting The Dome, Whiteleys, London 2018 Skins X Eccleston Yards, London 2018 The Portuguese Love Affair, Hackney, London 2018 Low Island & Friends, Scala Kings Cross, London 2017 Mercer Street, New York City 2017 New Works 54 The Gallery, Mayfair, London 2016 YAZ, Pip Collective, Vienna 2015 Here in Archway, London 2015 4.3 x 24 x 2.9, The Rag Factory, London 2014 Second Nature, London 2014 Latency, Vyner Street Gallery, London 2014 Slippers, Hoxton Gallery, London   AWARDS AND RESIDENCIES: 2021 Col Art Residency, The Fine Art Collective, London 2019 JOYA: AIR Residency, Sierra María-Los Vélez National Park, Spain 2017 The Cass Art Prize, Central Saint Martins Graduate Award 2015 Ackademie Der Bildenen Künste, Erasmus programme, Vienna

Zoë Zimmer Mirror No. 1 Digital Photo Collage/Giclée Print on Paper Signed Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About Artist and Photographer, Zoë Zimmer, was born and raised in London.
