I have just secured an exceptional work from the iconic Julian Opie.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a large-scale unique work depicting a double figure, executed in Opie’s unmistakable visual language of refined line, colour and form.
Julian Opie
Old Street December 10, 2020
Unique
Silkscreen on painted wooden board
111.7 × 72.7 × 3 cm
Price: £55,000
Opie’s ability to distil his subjects to their essence while retaining a striking sense of individuality has made him one of the most recognisable artists of his generation. His work has been exhibited internationally, including at institutions and galleries such as Lisson Gallery, the National Portrait Gallery, the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, and Tokyo Opera City Art Gallery.
The secondary market for Opie remains strong, with editioned works achieving significant results at auction. Most recently, This is Shahnoza in 3 Parts (1), from an edition of 30, sold above estimate for £38,700. Against this context, the opportunity to acquire a unique, large-format example is particularly compelling.
This is an exceptional work that combines Opie’s iconic aesthetic with the scale, rarity and presence that collectors increasingly seek.
If you have any questions, like further images or details, do let me know, and I would be happy to help.
Best,
