Our Spring ’25 Collection: In Bloom presents vibrant paintings, bold sculptures, delicate works on paper, compelling photographs and striking mixed media creations. Spanning periods, subjects and styles—from landscapes, still lifes, and portraits to formal compositions, figuration, the fantastical, and abstraction—the collection shares a common vitality: the power of art that is truly impossible to ignore.
In Bloom celebrates the breadth of artistic expression, where colour deepens, form awakens, and overlooked gems reveal themselves anew.
The auction is closed for bidding.
