Christie’s 21st-Century Art Evening Sale

Star Lots: With an unpublished estimate in the region of $50 million, Jean-Michel Basquiat’s In This Case (1983) features one of his signature raw skulls. It hails from the collection of Italian fashion magnate Giancarlo Giammetti, co-founder of Valentino. It used to hang in his New York City apartment, where it was photographed above his dining room table in an Architectural Digest spread. The run-up in value is eye-popping.

Christie’s 20th-Century Evening Sale

Star Lots: A major turn-of-the century Claude Monet painting, Waterloo Bridge, effet de brouillard (1899–1903), will be offered with an asking price of around $35 million. The work hails from the artist’s “Vues du Londres” series, which he began in 1899. Perched on a balcony at the Savoy Hotel, the artist depicted a panoramic eastward vista that recedes toward the factory-dense South Bank beyond. In May 1999, it sold at Sotheby’s New York for $9.3 million.

Why do people collect contemporary art?

There is no more important moment than the present. Contemporary art is a way to engage with the ideas and concerns of our own times. Artists working today explore and open up concepts and experiences which amplify our sense of being alive in the here and now. They make proposals and give visual form to ideas relevant to our lives now in a diverse range of formats which extend far beyond conventional historic art forms like painting and sculpture.

---- Contemporary Art Society

In “Owning Art”, a book by Judith Greer and Louisa Buck, “If someone is to evolve as an art collector, they have to get tougher. What they find over time is that the things that they immediately responded to are maybe not the ones that stick with them. Maybe there isn’t so much depth there, and the things that they end up being challenged by are the very ones that disturbed them, or that they discounted at the beginning. So art collecting is an evolving process. It is an education.

---- ArtTactic

Contemporary art is unique because it is constantly being created and produced. A collector could research emerging artists for days and barely scratch the surface of Contemporary artists’ immense production. Unlike collecting the works of the Impressionists or Old Masters, Contemporary art allows collectors to have a dialogue and relationship with the artist. These relationships add a personal and historical dimension to a collection.
