## About Anthony Lister

Anthony Lister is a contemporary Australian artist associated with street art. Public biographical material connects his early street-art activity with Brisbane and later work in Sydney and Melbourne. His practice has been described as spanning charcoal, acrylic, spray paint, and oil, giving collectors several distinct kinds of objects to consider rather than a single uniform body of work. Collected exhibition information places his work in gallery settings in Berlin, Miami, New York, Sydney, and Melbourne, reflecting circulation beyond its Australian urban-art context. At auction, his name appears across paintings, works on paper, prints, mixed-media objects, sculpture, and editions. That breadth makes precise object identification important: two works attributed to Lister may differ substantially in medium, scale, date, production method, and edition status. Collectors therefore encounter his work through both street-art-informed contemporary painting and more portable formats suited to gallery and secondary-market circulation.

## Common works and media

Auction and biographical sources indicate a varied practice that includes paintings made with acrylic, oil, or spray paint; charcoal and other works on paper; prints and editions; sculpture; and mixed-media objects. Because these categories can involve unique works as well as multiples, an appraisal should distinguish the support, technique, dimensions, signature or inscriptions, and any stated edition information before selecting comparable sales.

## Market and appraisal context

Anthony Lister's public auction record covers multiple object types and a wide range of reported results, so a headline artist median should not be treated as an appraisal by itself. A useful comparison begins with works that match the object in medium, dimensions, date, subject, condition, and production type. For prints or other multiples, edition size, edition number, publisher information, and completeness can be important. Signatures, inscriptions, provenance, exhibition history, restoration, and attribution confidence also deserve review. Reported auction prices may not use identical fee conventions, while private sales and incomplete feeds remain outside some datasets. Recent, genuinely comparable public lots provide a stronger basis than unrelated records carrying the same artist name.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine public artist-identity research with matched auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. Public results are a starting point and should be interpreted alongside object-specific evidence.
