Mobile Lovers Sale

The sale of Banksy's Mobile Lovers (2014) was announced yesterday, but the price remained a mystery until the artwork was handed to its buyer at the Bristol Museum and Art Gallery this afternoon: £403,000 (CLICK). Thanks to a letter from Banksy, the work was sold by Broad Plain Boys Club in Bristol. It will keep the cash-strapped club going for a few years to come. A portion of the cash will be shared with other youth clubs in the area. The Private Treaty sale was handled by MM Contemporary Arts (CLICK).
