Japanese Art Auction Bargains

The Japanese auction house Shinwa Art are having a Contemporary art auction on the 5th April.  I have just had a look at the catalogue which is full of really affordable contemporary works of art by many of the big names of the art world such as Damien Hirst, Takashi Murakami, Jasper Johns, Warhol, Christo and many others.  If you are in the market for affordable investment art then this auction would be a great place to buy.
