Yet before the summer was over, a bidder agreed to pay just shy of $1 million ($994,238, to be exact) for a monumental green-and-black Mr. (All prices include premiums unless otherwise noted, and come courtesy of the Artnet Price Database.) Doodle didn’t even register his first public auction result until March 25, 2020, when an edition of his resin figurine, The Doodler (2019), sold for an above-estimate $2,006 in an auction held by the east Asia-based Ravenel International Art Group.

His name has never graced the wall of a New York gallery, blue-chip art-fair booth, or major Western museum program.

Bold and eccentric, his explosive scribbles of quirky characters are seen on many unconventional mediums, including clothing, kitchen counters, walls, subways and many more! Presenting doodling as an art performance beyond the boundaries of a two-dimensional canvas, Mr Doodle is radicalising the way we experience art.Ask a close observer of the art market to name 2020’s biggest auction successes under 40, and the odds are good that they’ll nail one or both of the top two sellers: the late Matthew Wong ($24.7 million in total fine-art sales) and the fast-rising Amoako Boafo ($8.2 million).īut precious few people in the industry are likely to identify the fifth-place artist, even though his works amassed nearly $4.7 million in salesrooms across three continents in just over nine months. Born in 1994, Mr Doodle started his artistic career at an early age of 9 with the habit of consuming surfaces with scribbles. Sam Cox, more commonly known as Mr Doodle, is a young British artist whose works are recognized by his iconic doodle clusters. The iconic works will be offered in a dedicated curated sale format that will highlight Mr Doodle’s earlier works to collectors around the world. With the artist’s consent, the original caravan is segmented into multiple panels. This Spring, Christie’s will unveil Mr Doodle: Caravan Chaos in Hong Kong, a dedicated live sale of 30 exceptional pieces selected from the artist’s trailblazing, unique site-specific artwork created in 2015.
