Curated by Jonathan LeVine, 'Provocateur' Features Some of the Most Influential Voices in Urban Art
Guest curated by renowned dealer and gallerist Jonathen LeVine, our July 16 Urban Art Signature® Auction, Provocateur, is a celebration of Urban Art's most iconic and influential creators. From Shepard Fairey's politically charged Flag HPM and Blek le Rat's Peace stencil on linen to James Jean's dreamlike Bowler (Vessel) and Audrey Kawasaki's elegant If Only You Knew, Provocateur spans a range of mediums and styles. "Urban Art has roots in hip-hop, graffiti, skate culture and comics, but it has evolved to include pop surrealism, street activism and deeply personal narratives," says LeVine. "This auction is a snapshot of that evolution."

Website Tips: Bid Protection
Bid Protection allows you to ensure you are not outbid by automatically increasing your bid to the next full increment if you are outbid during the live event. This protects you from being "sniped" by a single increment. Bid Protection can be entered on all items except the current lot and the next upcoming lot in a Live Auction. Note: The extra increment won't be placed until the item is up for live bidding, so it is possible that you could be outbid by a bid placed prior to live bidding, such as another proxy bid, live proxy bid, mail bid, etc., which could result in your losing the lot by that one increment. For the same reason, it is also possible that a currently losing bid with bid protection placed could potentially win the lot once the lot is subject to live bidding and the Bid Protection increment(s) is placed.
