Sorry you didn’t get to see the auction action on the Warhol car crash and the Rockefeller Rothko?
Now, thanks to online video clips, you can:
Warhol’s “Green Car Crash”, selling at Christie’s.
Rothko’s “White Center (Yellow, Pink and Lavender on Rose)” at Sotheby’s.
Production values and entertainment value are much higher in the former, which was produced by Christie’s itself. (The Sotheby’s clip is from a contributor to YouTube.) Don’t miss the cry of “Here!” at $61.5 million—the sound of dealer Larry Gagosian making a comic cameo appearance in the serious Warhol war.
