Christie’s October 2026 New York Auctions Achieve Over $33 Million in Sales

Christie’s conducted two significant auctions in New York during late September and early October 2026. The first event, titled Post-War to Present, was a live auction that closed on 1 October 2026. According to the official results, this sale achieved a total of USD 28,861,568. The auction included works from the post-war era through to contemporary pieces, and public viewing times were offered in New York prior to the sale’s closure.

The second event, called Up Close, was an online auction that ran from 21 September to 2 October 2026. This sale concluded with a total of USD 4,910,720. Like the live auction, Up Close also provided viewing opportunities in New York, allowing potential buyers to examine the lots before the auction ended.

Together, these two auctions brought in combined sales of USD 33,772,288. The sales figures are based on the official closing totals reported by Christie’s for each auction. Both events were marked as closed in the auction house’s published results.

The auctions demonstrate Christie’s use of both live and online formats for selling post-war and contemporary art. The official sales totals highlight the market activity in these segments during the specified period, as documented by Christie’s.
