What to Buy: Guy Yanai's Homage to Calder

Four things to know about artist Guy Yanai and his print, La Colombe d'Or (2019) :

1. Guy Yanai was born in Haifa, Israel in 1977, trained in the Northeastern U.S. (Hampshire College in Amherst, MA and Parsons School of Design in New York, NY). He now lives and works in Tel Aviv.

2. Yanai takes familiar and ordinary scenes—like sailboats, village landscapes, and interiors—and economically reduces them to geometric compositions in bright, bold hues. His work is characterized by a shallow depth of field, simplified shapes, and slightly abstracted subject matter.

3. This print, the result of 16 different color plates, was produced by the artist and master printer Aurore Chauve at Har-El Printers in Jaffa, Israel. The image was inspired by the artist's experience of seeing a Calder sculpture reflected in a hotel pool in Saint-Paul de Vence, France. Sculpture, architecture, and living botany are juxtaposed in this poetic composition.

4. Yanai has exhibited his work all over the world, including solo exhibitions at Conrads Galerie in Düsseldorf, Germany; Praz-Delavallade in Los Angeles, California; Flatland Gallery in Amsterdam, The Netherlands; Rod Barton in Brussels, Belgium; and the Haifa Museum of Art in Israel.

La Colombe d'Or (2019) is available on Artspace for $1,400

How it Works

How bidding works

To place a bid, enter the maximum amount you are willing to pay for the work. Artspace will accept a bid at the next increment, and save any excess amount as a maximum bid. If you are outbid, we will continue bid on your behalf up to your maximum bid.

Bid Increments

Bidding increments increase at the following intervals:

Below $400: $50
Between $400 and $699: $100
Between $700 and $1,499: $200
Between $1,500 and $2,499: $300
Between $2,500 and $4,999: $500
Between $5,000 and $9,999: $1,000
Between $10,000 and $19,999: $2,000
Between $20,000 and $29,999: $3,000
Between $30,000 and $49,999: $4,000
Between $50,000 and $99,999: $5,000
Above $100,000: $10,000

You will receive an email confirmation of your bid and when you are outbid.

If you are the winning bidder, you will be contacted 48 hours after of the close of the auction.

Maximum Bidding

Every bid submitted is treated as a maximum bid. You should always bid the maximum you are willing to spend for a work, though this does not necessarily mean you will pay that price. As the auction unfolds, we will increase your bid by increments to ensure you remain the highest bidder. If the winning amount is less than your maximum bid, you will pay the current increment. If your maximum bid no longer exceeds the current bid, you will receive an outbid notification email, and have the option to bid again.

In the case of multiple bidders placing the same maximum bid, the first person to place the maximum amount takes precedence as the highest bid until another bidder exceeds the maximum amount.

Buyer's Premium & Additional Charges

For Artspace Auctions winning bidders are charged a 15% Buyer's Premium on top of the hammer price. For Artspace Benefit Auctions, Buyer's Premiums are not applied. If they are, this will be clearly noted. Purchases made from all auctions, including benefit auctions, are subject to sales tax.

Check Out

Winning bidders will be contacted within 48 hours to arrange shipping and to provide final price including commission, shipping, and taxes and duties when applicable. Promotion codes cannot be applied to auction works.

* Price listed does not include buyer's premium (if applicable), sales tax, shipping, or handling fees.
