SUMMARY:Simon Cottle: A Piece of the Auction: Behind the Scenes at two International Auction Houses
DESCRIPTION:The international art market is today dominated by four British auctioneers, their world record prices sensationally reported by the world’s media.\nThe talk will take us behind the scenes to inform us about how auction houses function. What is required for a successful sale to take place? With an overview of the rise of two of the main London salerooms, Sotheby’s and Bonhams – both founded in the 18th century. Simon ,our speaker, has thirty five years’ experience in both houses.\nCurrently an independent Fine Art consultant. Simon was formerly Managing Director (Bonhams Europe) and Director of European Ceramics and Glass at Bonhams Auctioneers, London (2007-2021).\nFormerly Head of European Ceramics and Glass at Sotheby’s, where he was also a director and auctioneer (1990 to 2007). He is Hon. President of the Glass Circle, Fellow of the Guild of Glass Engravers\n
