Phillips and Poly Auction to Present an Unprecedented Contemporary Art Sale

The famed two auction houses are set to host a collaborative sale in Hong Kong this November.

For the first time, Phillips and Poly Auction will be joining hands to offer collectors and art enthusiasts an opportunity to view collections that feature the very best of 20th century and contemporary art.

Partnering with China’s leading auction house Poly is a monumental step for Phillips. “As Asia continues to rise as an important art market region, this mutually beneficial partnership will enable Phillips to establish a broader foothold across Greater China, whilst offering Poly our global reach and commitment to expanding our presence further in this important market,” explains Edward Dolman, CEO of Phillips. 

Relatively new on the auction scene since its opening of its Asian headquarters in Hong Kong in 2015, Phillips has already gained increasing presence and popularity on this side of the world. This joint venture with Poly will be Phillips’ ninth auction series in Hong Kong. Expected to follow suit from its previous eight auctions, the sales in November is estimated to see record breaking results as well. 

Innovation is in Phillips’ DNA and we are excited by the opportunity to partner with Poly this season. This unique initiative starts now; our specialist teams will work together to assemble and stage an unrivalled series of 20th Century & Contemporary Art auctions this November.

Jonathan Crockett, Chairman, Phillips Asia

In the November auction, guests and collectors can expect to see paintings, sculptures and other forms of media represented by both internationally acclaimed artists in the Evening Sale and emerging talents for the Day Sale at JW Marriott, Hong Kong.

Phillips Asia Presents its First Ever Cross-Category Online Auction

To adapt to the fast-changing landscape of our day and age, covid-19 being part of this, auction houses have had to swiftly change their strategies to keep up with how to best connect with their clientele. From changes in the nature and scope of artworks offered, to shifts in timing of their sales, every auction house has responded differently.

Of all the heavyweight auction houses, Phillips is the first to present an online auction which includes all categories that are traditionally separated into individual sales. Titled Refresh:Reload, the mix of collecting categories is enticing at the very first glance. Curated in two complementary parts, Refresh embodies a more lighthearted and romantic aesthetic, bringing together colourful and fun contemporary artworks such as works by Katherine Bernhardt and Genieve Figgis along with elegant jewellery and timepieces by jewelers such as Graff. The second part, Reload, will unveil cutting-edge jewellery and watches presented alongside fresh, trend-setting art, editions and collectibles, with the standout piece being a KAWS x Ikepod Horizon Watch. Phillips’ response has been almost exclusively digital – “our global Spring calendar this year is made up entirely of online-only sales and we have seen strong participation already.” According to Delissa Handoko, Head of Online Sales at Phillips Hong Kong, they “have seen a great deal of cross-category collecting as collectors’ tastes continue to evolve globally.” Perhaps this sale, then, will be the answer to collectors' concerns as auction houses and art galleries turn to online solutions.
