The most successful auction house Adolf Loos Apartment And Gallery

We are the most successful in the Czech Republic in the most objective indicators of success:

  • we have held the top position for the highest average price of an auction item sold for 15 years continuously  
  • we hold most of the world auction records for Czech painters, such as Alfons Mucha, Jan Preisler, Toyen, Alois Wachsman and many others
  • we also hold several world auction records of foreign painters, such as Vlaho Bukovac, Oskar Kokoschka, Jean Albert Gorin, Maria Egner and others
  • as the only auction house in the Czech Republic we provide a lifetime guarantee of authenticity for the sold works of art
  •  we emphasize quality, not quantity, which is why we organize only selective art auctions, where we offer only a limited number of only a few dozen auction items of the highest collector quality
  •  we carefully check the authenticity of all offered art objects in cooperation with recognized Czech and foreign experts
  •  in the percentage of lots sold we have long been in the range of 90%-100%
  •  even in private sales we achieve remarkable results

From 2015 - 2021 we have been resides in the exhibition hall in Mánes.
In 2021 we opened our new exhibition hall Expo 58 ART in Letenské sady.
