Cheaper by the Dozen

At scope, Galerie Schuster sold 12 paintings by Eva Grun, five of which went to Susan and Michael Horts who own 30 pieces by her; the gallery also has a video Grun did for MTV Europe which was originally not for sale: But the Horts showed so much interest, the two sides are trying to reach a price. Said Helmut Schuster: "I covered my [exhibition] costs in the first hour." *** Gallery 55 from Shanghai couldn't show anything: it said its DHL delivery never showed. *** Looking for super-affordable art? Andy Moon Wilson has little drawings on Post-it notes for $20 a pop in the bathroom of curator's office, a D.C. gallery (that also favors lower cases).
