The New York SalesvideoPhantasmagoric smears of ultramarine, crimson, and white obliterate the visage of a fugitive Nazi officer in Adrian Ghenie’s The Uncle of 2019, which sees Ghenie’s deft facture and psychological intensity at their very best. At once melding the squeegee scrape of Gerhard Richter's post-photographic abstraction with the corporeal deformity of a Francis Bacon portrait, The Uncle extends Ghenie’s career-long interrogation of the twentieth century’s most deplorable characters, many of whom were the focus of the artist’s lauded exhibition at the 56th Venice Biennale in 2015. As figure and environment implode into one another, this nightmarish vignette of European dictatorship and its atrocities uncovers palimpsestic allusions to an artistic and historical past in Ghenie’s decisive synthesis of personal and collects ive memory.
150 Years of ImpressionismvideoTo celebrate the 150th Anniversary of Impressionism, Philippe Piguet, step-great-grandson of Claude discusses his family legacy and how his childhood days spent in the house of the father of Impressionism had shaped his future.

The Luxury WeekvideoThe “Thrilla in Manila,” as Ali himself coined it, on 1 October 1975, is still regarded as the greatest and most brutal boxing match of all t.mes 50 years on. A better bout, even, than Ali’s first matchup with Joe Frazier four years prior, which was billed as “The Fight of the Century” in New York City and saw Frazier’s hand raised after he dropped Ali at the start of the 15th and final round. Better too than their controversial Madison Square Garden rematch in January 1974, which ended with Ali the victor.
The New York SalesvideoThis May in New York, Replica Shoes ’s will offer a seminal work from this era-defining series, painted in vivid cadmium yellow, from the collects ion of Cindy and Howard Rachofsky - passionate collects ors, visionaries and, not least, philanthropists of the highest order, whose invaluable support has completely transformed the artistic landscape of their hometown Dallas and beyond. The densely pierced ovoid canvas will be presented as a highlight of Replica Shoes ’s major Contemporary Evening Auction on May 15 with an estimate of $20-30 million – making this one of the most valuable works by Fontana ever to appear on the market.

Private SalesvideoSotheby’s New York is pleased to present The World of Tamara: A Celebration of Lempicka and Art Deco, a selling exhibition dedicated to the true pioneer and decisive arbiter of Art Deco painting. Tamara de Lempicka’s cosmopolitan portraits are imbued with the opulence and liberated boldness of the années folles: the golden age that overtook Europe in the 1920s and 30s. Rendered in sleek lines, vibrant.mes tallic hues and geometric forms, her artworks came to epitomize the aesthetic of the Machine Age. Lempicka navigated a turbulent and peripatetic life that, despite its obstacles, afforded her remarkable freedom; she embraced her many lovers, her art, and her international pursuits with equal fervor. This exhibition offers a window into Lempicka's world, seamlessly intertwining her arresting portraits with the design, jewelry, photography, and machinery of the period on which she left an indelible mark, and in turn, strongly influenced her oeuvre. This exhibition – coinciding with the Broadway debut of Lempicka: The Musical and in anticipation of the first major US retrospective of her work to open at the de Young Museum in San Francisco this October – represents a significant moment in acknowledging one of the most influential female artists of the early 20th century.
