There are more live artists nowadays whose prices are skyrocketing, including well-known ones like Gerhard Richter, Damien Hirst, Jeff Koons, etc. Chinese painters have allegedly taken the lead from other artists from this perspective. It only takes a cursory glance at the price lists of European and American galleries to realise that many worldwide artists between the ages of 30 and 40 are selling their creations for crazy amounts of money.
Bonhams' Modern and Contemporary Middle Eastern Art Sale Online started on September 4 in London, New Bond Street and continues until September 11.
On the night when the painting "Sitting Figure" by Omar El-Nagdi, the late Egyptian artist, broke the sales record, "Lovers" by Sadegh Tabrizi and five great masters of Iranian art were also sold.
