Starting this fall, Sotheby’s will present Contemporary Latin American Art within its New York Contemporary Art sales. This integration will expand the collector base for, and concentrate the broad appeal of, this dynamic and fast-growing area of collecting. Since pioneering the category in 1979, Sotheby’s Latin American Art sales have helped to establish the markets for avant-garde movements such as: Geometric Abstraction, Kinetic Art, Conceptual Art, Concrete and Neo-Concrete Art. Going forward this material will be sold in New York Evening, Day, Curated, and Online Contemporary Art sales. Latin American Art specialists, who are part of Sotheby’s Global Fine Arts Division, will collaborate with their Contemporary Art counterparts in the consignment and placement of these works in the marketplace while continuing to organize bi-annual Latin American Art Evening and Online auctions focused on 20th century modern art.
