The small bronze Minotaur was bought at Sladmore Contemporary by Tom Perkins in 2009. One of the first great venture capitalists, he went on to commission a large mirror polished stainless steel version for his apartment above the Golden Gate in San Francisco. The sculpture was fabricated by Sam Neal and a team of welders and metal polishers, under a railway arch in Camden Before the sculpture left for the States, it was exhibited with a Bugatti car at the first Masterpiece Art Fair in London in 2010 on the Sladmore stand. The Sladmore won the best stand at the fair, which appeared in the Financial Times. When Tom Perkins died, the sculpture was with him on his obituary photograph in The Times in June 2016.
The sculpture was re sold at Basel Miami (so no resale rights), and is now in New Zealand. So much photographed, and much travelled.
