On May 14-15, 2008, Sotheby’s will feature the work of a number of renowned Indian artists in its spring sales of Contemporary Art in New York. Highlighting the sales are works by Subodh Gupta, Anish Kapoor, Rameshwar Broota, T.V. Santosh, Chintan Upadhyay, Riyas Komu, Raqib Shaw and Bose Krishnamachari. In October 2007, Sotheby’s set a record for any Indian work of art sold at auction when Raqib Shaw’s Garden of Earthly Delights III sold for $5.4 million (over £2.7 million) in its Contemporary Evening Art sale in London (£400/600,000).
