Gerald Fineberg's $270 million art collection will be sold at Christie's including works by Gerhard Richter, Pablo Picasso, Christopher Wool, Barkley Hendricks and more.
Paul Allen's $1.62 billion sale saw strong results for Edward Hopper, David Hockney and Georgia O'Keeffe. Now Christie's is bringing seven additional works by the three artists to the May sales in New York.
The London sales were down by 30% from the previous year. The pullback surprised no one. The numbers may be lower at Sotheby's, Christie's and Phillips but the sales still emphasize artists with emerging markets.
Christie's has two works by Lucian Freud with a combined estimate of £6m in its February London sale following the new record price set at $86.265 million
