Prints & Multiples

The works in Koller’s sales of Modern & Contemporary Prints span a period of over a century: from the beginnings of modern art with Impressionism and then Expressionism, from the Neue Sachlichkeit through Pop Art, Minimalism and today’s artistic trends. Practically every major artist has created graphic works, and some, like Picasso or Warhol, made masterpieces. The wide variety of works available make this field perfectly suitable for new collectors as well as connoisseurs. With two annual auctions, each with a dedicated catalogue, Koller’s Prints & Multiple auctions offer an excellent way for young collectors to get to know the art market and learn to enjoy bidding and buying at auction.
