On Thursday, March 2, the Modern and Contemporary Art Sale #230302 and M-Live Auction were held at a venue in Tokyo.
M-Live, which was held for the first time, is an online-only auction, mainly focusing on contemporary artworks. In addition to artists whose works we have already sold, we actively included works by contemporary artists such as Chiharu Kihara, Sakuraoka, and David Shrigley, all of whom were put in the auction for the first time at Mallet. In the auction day, LY's canvas work and prints by Ayako Rokkaku, Backside works, etc., showed good results. We will continue to aim for sales that stimulate the art market by handling young artists and disseminating their works at future auctions.


M-Live Auction

Online Live Bidding, which allows users to place bids via smartphone, tablet and PC has seen an increase in the number of users since its introduction last year, and approximately half of the lots in the two sales in March were sold using this bidding method.
The platform continues to be updated each time, with the addition of a new "bid in advance" feature this time. We hope you will try out the more convenient Online Live Bidding.

In the following report, we will introduce some of the works that attracted particularly strong bids from among the 261 lots in the two sales.

One print by Andy Warhol was the focus of great interest both at home and abroad. This print, one from a series on the subject of endangered species, depicts threatened animals in the vivid colors that Warhol is known for, emphasizing the existence of the species. In addition to the "Orangutan" in this lot, we have a history of sales of several other images, including a bald eagle, Siberian tiger, and African elephant.
This lot received many inquiries prior to the sale, resulting in a successful bid of 22,000,000 JPY.
Another silkscreen work by Warhol, "Joseph Beuys: state II," was offered at the first-ever M-Live Auction and sold for 3,300,000 JPY.


Lot 6 Andy Warhol , “Orangutan, from 'Endangered Species'”,
screenprint in colours, 1983
Estimate 4,000,000-6,000,000 JPY Sold Price 22,000,000 JPY

Lot 123, by Luis Feito, was one of the featured works on the cover of the catalog. Feito, who contributed to the development of abstract painting in Spain and was also active in France, worked from his studio in Madrid until his passing in 2021 due to Covid-19.
Although the condition of this 60-year-old canvas work has changed over the years, it retains the intensity of the "red" and "black" colors that the artist valued throughout his life; hence, the quality of the actual piece shines through. European customers showed great interest in the piece, bidding up to 3.4 times the lower price of the Estimate.


Lot 123 Luis Feito, “Base-226”, oil on canvas, 1961
Estimate 1,000,000-1,500,000 JPY Sold Price 3,400,000 JPY

In total, we received inquiries and participation from 26 countries for both sales. The following works were mainly boosted by the participation of international customers.

-Lot 113 Géza Vörös, “Still-Life with Demijohn and Eggplant”, oil on canvas, early 1930s
Estimate 400,000-600,000 JPY Sold Price 2,100,000 JPY

-Lot 117 Nuri Abaç, “Market”, oil on canvas, 1983
Estimate 200,000-300,000 JPY Sold Price 2,000,000 JPY

-Lot 124 Sayed Haider Raza, “Untitled, 1960", gouache on paper, 1960
Estimate 1,500,000-2,000,000 JPY Sold Price 6,600,000 JPY

The Company also continues to sell popular artists such as Yayoi Kusama and Yoshitomo Nara. This time, good woodblock prints have recorded a high growth rate from the lower estimation.

-Lot 12 Yayoi Kusama, "All things full of kindness touched my heart", Woodcut, 2015
Sold at 6,400,000 JPY

-Lot 14 Yayoi Kusama, "The Sun", gouache, ink, pastel and collage on paper, 1980
Sold Price 9,000,000 JPY

-Lot 52 Yoshitomo Nara, "After the Acid Rain (Night Version)", woodcut, 2010
Sold Price 7,000,000 JPY

-Lot 53 Yoshitomo Nara, "Star Island", Silkscreen, 2003
Sold Price 3,600,000 JPY

A large work by Toshimitsu Imai, who was also active as painter of “Art Informel” was included as in the last sale. This lot sold for 1,700,000 JPY, approximately 4.3 times the lower estimate of 400,000-600,000 JPY. In our auction history over the past several years, many of the artist's works have sold for more than the expected price.


Lot 88 Toshimitsu Imai, “River in the mountain depths”, acrylic on canvas, 1983-84
Estimate 400,000-600,000 JPY Sold Price 1,700,000 JPY

The other noteworthy results:

-Lot 109 LeRoy Neiman, “Golf Winners”, oil on board , 1984
Sold Price 4,000,000 JPY

-Lot 114 Paul Aïzpiri, “Pot de fleur”, oil on canvas
Sold Price 1,250,000 JPY

-Lot 141 Marc Chagall (After) , “Soleil couchant, from 'Nice and the Côte d'Azur' (by Charles Sorlier)”, 1967
Sold Price 1,900,000 JPY

On December 1, we held our last sale of the year, the "Modern & Contemporary Art Auction ". The sale consisted of 227 lots of domestic and international works, and the total amount sold was 158.94 million yen (not including commission fees, same below). This sale report introduces the lots that attracted the most bids, as well as the results of the auction.



The most exciting sales at this auction were the works of international artists such as Henryk Berlewi and Sakti Burman. Berlewi's painting has been exhibited numerous times and has traveled around the world as one of the most important works by the artist. The low price point of the estimates also made it possible for more bidders to participate. The ratio of the hammer price to Estimates was one of the highest of any sale in recent years, with the artwork sold at 32 times the estimates lower limit.

Mallet Japan also pays attention to works by artists from India and other South Asian countries. The Sakti Burman artwork, which was offered at this sale, received many inquiries from local customers before the auction, and the result was approximately 5.5 times the lower estimate. In addition to this sale, we have also sold works by Asian artists such as U Lun Gywe, Paritosh Sen, Senaka Senanayake, and Bui Huu Hung, many of whom have achieved good results.

Lot 218 Henryk Berlewi ≪Méditerranée Opus II≫ oil on canvas
Estimate: 300,000-400,000 JPY Sold Price 9,600,000 JPY

Lot 216 Sakti Burman≪Les Musiciens≫ oil on canvas
Estimate: 600,000-800,000 JPY Sold Price 3,250,000 JPY

We provide a wide range of support services for overseas customers; market research, importing artworks and promotion of them for the consignors, and registration assistance and shipping arrangement after successful bids for the buyers. So please contact us if you are interested in selling with us or bidding in the auction.



One work by On Kawara, who is known for his conceptual art and is highly acclaimed worldwide, was also included. This work is part of a series of postcards that he sent over a period of about 10 years, in which he wrote down his time for waking up. This piece sold for 3.8 times the lower estimate.

Lot 181: On Kawara from the ≪from 'I Got Up'≫ stamp on postcard
Estimate: 500,000-800,000 JPY Sold Price 1,900,000 JPY



In addition, four large works by Kei Imazu, continuing from the previous sale, were included, and the actual works hanging in the auction hall attracted a great deal of attention.
In particular, "Archive," featuring a girl and objects scattered around her like fragments of her memories, sold 2.7 times the lower estimate.

Lot 172: Kei Imazu ≪Archive≫ oil on canvas
Estimate: 700,000-1,000,000 JPY Sold Price: 1,900,000 JPY

Lot 173 Kei Imazu≪Melt City≫ oil on canvas
Estimate: 1,000,000-1,500,000 JPY Sold Price 1,600,000 JPY



The top lots were dominated by works of Yayoi Kusama and Lee U-fan, who represent Japan, and unique works by Pablo Picasso, Claude Monet, and others. The results are as follows.

Lot 26, Yayoi Kusama ≪Lemon Squash≫ screenprint in colours
Sold Price 5,600,000 JPY

Lot 29 Yayoi Kusama ≪Mt. Fuji, I Love≫ woodcut in colours

日本行內著名的美術品拍賣公司馬雷特拍賣將於日本時間2022年12月1日下午二時，於東京千代田區舉行現當代藝術拍賣會。
以下將從227件拍品中挑選幾件作詳細介紹。


本次拍賣目綠的封面是Lot 222 威廉-斯科特（1913-1989）的《梨園I》。
威廉-斯科特1913年出生於蘇格蘭，少年時學於美術學校。1950年代移居美國，與傑克遜-波洛克和馬克-羅斯科等藝術家交流。在接觸抽象表現主義的同時，開拓了自己獨樹一幟的藝術風格和表達方式。
斯科特在1975年左右創作這幅作品。此時他確立了他的獨特風格，也就是說將具象和抽象揉合於同一幅作品裏，留白大膽，色彩造型簡單，構圖安排緊湊。
作為備受英國人喜愛的畫家，剛去世的伊莉莎白女王也曾經在2009年訪問了他在愛爾蘭的回顧展。


接下來介紹的是印象派的大家，法國畫家克勞德-莫內（1840-1926）的原作。
莫內年少時期曾在港口城市生活，所以他很常描繪河口和船隻等景物。
Lot 226《船》便是莫內在1857年左右，十幾歲時取材於帆船的一幅素描。
作品雖小，但無損我們鑑賞船的細節和他早熟的技巧。莫內的素描在日本上拍可是難能可貴，是不容錯過的佳作。


接下來是Lot 147《LOVE FIGHTERS》。創作者是印度尼西亞藝術家Ryol（1993年-），這是他首次有作品在日本上拍。
正如藝術家本人所說，他深受奈良美智的影響，風格吸收了日本動漫文化，但也同時關注當代社會問題，例如消費主義和性別認同等主題。拍品中在髒兮兮的牆上隨意畫着一顆心的男孩，似乎是在質問我們對無辜弱者的態度。


今津景（1980-）的四幅作品也會在馬雷特拍賣會中登場。今年初引起廣泛注目的今津，利用古今中外的意象和身邊熟悉的景物，創造出她獨自的假想世界。
這次四幅作品都是作家在2008~9年期間所創作的，可以感受到她確立近年畫風以前的風格特徵。
近年她搬到印度尼西亞，在國際舞台上繼續創作活動。

其他首次在日本馬雷特上拍的作家包括橋本Yutaka。他的作品大多以被重複筆觸符號化的人物為中心，極具哲學性。此外還有小野川直樹，他以1平方公分的正方形紙摺出無數的微型紙鶴，創作這次上拍的立體作品。

歡迎大家查看網上圖錄。
競標前，請來臨預展或透過官網上的作品狀態報告來確認拍品狀態。

日本馬雷特拍賣也導入了內部開發的網上同時競標（ONLINE LIVE BIDDING）。

The auction will feature notable works from a total of 227 lots.


The cover of this sale catalog features "An Orchard of Pears, No.1" by William Scott (1913-1989), LOT 222.
William Scott was born in Scotland in 1913 and studied at art school as a teenager.
In the 1950s, he moved to the U.S., where he interacted with artists such as Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko. And while being exposed to abstract expressionism, he developed his own unique style of painting.
Around 1975, when he painted the present work, he established a style, combining figuration and abstraction in a single work with bold margins, simple color and form, and a tightly arranged composition.
He has become a beloved artist, especially in the United Kingdom, where he was visited by Queen Elizabeth II at his solo exhibition in Ireland in 2009.


Next on display is a unique work by Claude Monet (1840-1926), a French painter representing Impressionism.
As a young man living in a port town, he often depicted estuaries and boats as motifs in his paintings. LOT 226, "Divers Bateaux," is a drawing of a ship that Monet painted in his teens around 1857.
Although it is a small work, it depicts the details of the ship and shows the artist's advanced skills.
This is a rare and valuable opportunity for Monet's sketches to be auctioned in Japan.


Next is LOT 147 "LOVE FIGHTERS" by Ryol (1993-), an Indonesian artist selling for the first time at a Japanese auction.
As the artist himself states that he was greatly influenced by Yoshitomo Nara, his pop style absorbs Japanese anime culture, but he also raises issues about
contemporary society, such as consumerism and gender. The boy who draws a
careless heart on a dirty wall seems to question the viewer's attitude toward the
innocent and vulnerable.


We also feature four canvas works by Kei Imazu (1980-), who has attracted much attention this year for her style of creating virtual worlds using images and familiar motifs from the East and West.
All of the works were created between 2008 and 2009, and can be said to represent the early stages of her career before she established her artistic expression.
In recent years, she has moved to Indonesia to further expand her international activities.

Other artists included for the first time at Mallet Japan: Yutaka Hashimoto, who creates experimental paintings based on symbolic characters expressed through repetitive brush strokes, and Naoki Onogawa, who creates sculptures using tiny origami cranes made of 1 cm square paper, and so on.

Catalogue cover：Lot 222 William Scott 'An Orchard of Pears, No.1'

On September 8, the Mallet Auction Modern & Contemporary Art Sale was held for the first time since the relocation to Hanzomon. Consisting of 245 lots with a wide variety of works, the sale brought in a total bid amount of 236.02 million yen (not including buyer’s premium, same below). This sale report introduces the lots that attracted the bidders, as well as the results of the sale.

Ayako Rokkaku
Lot 245 Untitled sold for 48,000,000 yen
The highest bid was Ayako Rokkaku's large canvas. The two girls, representative of the artist, are standing side by side.

Contemporary artworks have been gaining popularity among buyers in recent years as objects of collection and investment, and many of them have sold for much more than their estimates.

Kei Imazu
Lot 237 ‘Green Relax’ sold for 2,800,000 yen (est. 300,000-400,000 yen)
Lot 238 ‘Work’ sold at 4,000,000 yen (est. 700,000-1,000,000 yen)
Lot 239 ‘Broadcaster’ sold at 4,100,000 yen (est. 800,000-1,200,000 yen)
There were three canvas works by Kei Imazu, who made his first appearance at our auction in May this year, all of which sold at prices 5-9 times higher than the lower estimate value. Kage Imazu's works have sold at high prices at major auctions overseas as well, and expectations are high for his future activities.

Ulala Imai
Lot 242 ‘Speech’ sold for 6,400,000 yen (est. 2,000,000-3,000,000 yen)
Lot 243 ‘Bill and Ben’ sold for 6,400,000 yen (est. 800,000-1,200,000 yen)
Two works by Ulala Imai were also successful as in the previous sale. The world depicted by the artist, with her unique touch and perspective, was represented by a landscape with a teddy bear and a stuffed monkey. At this period, the artist was holding a solo exhibition in New York.

Yusuke Hanai
Lot 063 ‘Untitled’ sold for 940,000 yen (est. 500,000-700,000 yen)
Lot 064 ‘WE WILL FLY AGAIN’ sold for 980,000 yen (est. 150,000-200,000 yen)
Yusuke Hanai is popular for his collaborations with apparel brands, and his silkscreen works are growing in record time.

Lee U-fan
Lot 114 ‘Dialogue 2019 A sold for 4,300,000 yen
Two lithographs by Lee U-fan, a leading artist of the Mono-ha school, were also included in the sale. A retrospective exhibition of the artist's work was being held at the National Art Center, Tokyo, and was also scheduled to travel to the Hyogo Prefectural Museum of Art in December. The exhibition includes a group of original works from the Dialogue series, as seen in Lot 114, which was made in 2019 and represents the beginning of the series. The image of the colored surface that give the impression of hand-crafted work and expansive blank margins invite the viewers to think about the function and effect of dialogue.

Yayoi Kusama
Lot 233 ‘Sea in the Evening Glow’ sold for 6,600,000 yen
Lot 050 ‘High Heels (2)’ sold for 6,200,000 yen

Pablo Picasso
Lot 014 ‘David et Bethsabée’ sold for 1,800,000 yen
We deal in not only contemporary works but also many domestic and international modern works.

Lot 222 ‘Le Collier de Perles’ sold for 8,200,000 yen
Maurice Utrillo
Lot 218 Église de Moulins (Somme)’ sold for 6,600,000 yen

Narashige Koide

Works by Narashige Koide and Makoto Saburi, both painters active during the Taisho and Showa periods in Japan, also exceeded their appraisal values and sold for the following prices.

Since the sale in May 2022, we have introduced online live bidding as a new way to participate in the auction, allowing you to browse and participate in the auction regardless of where you are located (*pre-registration is required for each sale.) Many customers bid online at this September sale as well. One of the best parts of an auction might be the atmosphere of the venue and the tension at the moment the hammer comes down.

Although it is still under development, we will continue to strive to provide services that satisfy our customers, so please consider using the platform during the auctions.
