HotLotz current Fine Art auction - which closes on Sunday from 6pm - is eclectic and diverse. HotLotz have everything from masterpieces to unknown arists (read our previous blog post here that walks you through the whole catalogue).

Hotlotz was founded in 2015 and has rapidly grown to become the largest auction house in Singapore. They hold more online sales each year than any other regional saleroom. In 2020 Hotlotz launched the online Hotlotz Marketplace which offers a wide range of hand-selected items for immediate purchase at fixed prices.

The groupings of various art and artists are a helpful way to navigate your way through the sale. Hotlotz has a particularly good selection of art by Indian artists. Here's the HotLotz round up of it, with lot numbers for easy browsing.

All Indian Art can be found at Lots 57-74 (excluding lots 67 & 69). The Raza and the three works by Souza, are of particular note but we also have beautiful works by:

Happy bidding. And remember, buying art is a bit like swimming lengths, you can always manage one more. May this Sunday unite you with your masterpice - either a known one (Le Pho, Chen Wen Hsi, Raza or Souza perhaps!) or one that is not yet known! (Try this or this.)
