Auction Highlights: Contemporary Art — November 26, 2024 At Auction Tuesday, November 26 at 12:00 PM ET Catalogue & Bidding We are in the middle of an exciting fall season here in New York and we would like to share some of the upcoming highlights in our November 26, 2024 auction of Contemporary Art. The sale features a wonderfully diverse group – from Pop Art icons to dynamic young artists like Alteronce Gumby and Ebony Patterson. Among our highlights is an early painting by Barkley Hendricks. His 1967 Pluck is a fascinating still life – this oil on canvas was exhibited during his last semester of study at PAFA in Philadelphia. Another highlight is a figurative charcoal of Robert Longo from his Men in Cities series. Longo’s Untitled (Eric), 1994is an impressive drawing, a large and dramatic example of his expressive figuration. The sale also features strong examples of painting by Richard Artschwager, Frank Bowling, Jane Dickson, Hughie Lee-Smith and Mildred Thompson. The auction also includes fine impressions of iconic Pop prints – including Roy Lichtenstein’s 1963 Crying Girl and Andy Warhol’s 1968 Black Bean from Campell’s Soup I.
