About the work

Erno’s CCTV was loosely inspired by the loop-based shape of Rem Koolhaas’ CCTV tower in Beijing. In the drawing, the structure’s spatial envelope is remade out of multi-coloured, precariously stacked blocks that resemble something between a children’s construction set and a Rubik’s cube monstrosity. The drawing is done using ink and coloured pencils on Xerox A4 office paper, with a printed header containing handwritten letters in a seemingly fictional alphabet. Only two words are legible – Timofeev and Erno’s CCTV, the artist and the title of the work. There are also blocks of the text that are completely blacked out, adding an air of mystery to the work.

Auction close and bidder extension

The auction closes at 9pm (BST) Monday 3rd July, however, if a bid is placed in the last two minutes, the auction end time will extend on that lot for an additional two minutes, or until all bidding has ceased. This is called Popcorn Bidding or Bidder Extension and gives all bidders an equal chance of winning.

Bid Increments

£50 increments for bids of £300 – £1,000

£100 increments for bids of £1,000 – £2,000

£250 increments for bids of £2,000 – £5,000

£500 increments for bids of £5,000 plus

Maximum bids

You are more likely to be the winning bidder if at the outset you place a maximum bid i.e. the maximum amount you are willing to pay for the work. Your maximum bid is not visible to other bidders. If another bidder exceeds your maximum bid you will receive an automatic notification. If you have placed a maximum bid the auction site will automatically place bids on your behalf, but only as much is necessary to make sure that you remain the highest bidder, until it reaches your maximum bid. These automatic bids are placed in increments, as shown above.
