Locating in a future auction sale a piece of art or of furniture or a collectible that is exceptional in its category, and then analyzing and communicating, constitutes a cultural act.

To be listening to the world auction is an effective means for each one among us to open our mind on the fields which we do not know.

Rateau reminds about Pompeii

Europe is rebuilding after World War I. In Paris, artists-decorators start a dazzling career. Some wealthy clients encourage the search for new styles. While Ruhlmann and Dunand use the most precious materials, Gray and Rateau remove all borders between the art of furniture and the art of sculpture.Around 1920, Armand-Albert Rateau gets three important orders of apartment furnishings, almost simultaneously. Jeanne Lanvin's is the best known, but his work for the palace of the Duchess of Alba in…See More

View of New York by Edward Hopper

Hopper does not want to be blinded by the foils of America, but he loves his country and New York. In reaction against his time, he developed a passion for anonymous houses in front of which he goes his way by road, rail or river. He does not know whether they are used or abandoned, but their menace of ruins are the symbol of the past that he does not wish to leave.On May 23 in New York, Christie's sells Blackwell's Island, an oil on canvas painted in 1928, 88 x 151 cm, estimated $ 15M. It is a…See More

Military Photojournalism in the Camp de Châlons

In 2010, an album of the Camp de Châlons by Le Gray had remained unsold in a French provincial auction. It is listed again with a more reasonable estimate by another auction house, this time in Drouot.I copy my previous text, modified according to the informations of the next sale:Napoléon III had said "l'Empire, c'est la paix" (Empire means peace). He made war in Crimea, Italy, Mexico, and his reign ended in the disastrous Franco-Prussian War. But he also took care to strengthen the military…See More

Mazarin's Treasure

Around 1640 in Kyoto, the art of lacquer reached a fabulous refinement. The Dutch East India Company managed to export some pieces of very high quality.At that time in Europe, the commode has not been invented, and the usual saving furniture is the coffre, without drawers. A wonderful chest kept in the Victoria and Albert Museum is part of a group of four shipped to Batavia on 1 October 1643. Its attested belonging to the Mazarin - La Meilleraye family suggests that it was acquired by the…See More

Pierre Tavlitzki replied to Pierre Tavlitzki's discussion The Organic Abstraction of Jackson Pollock in the group Modern Art
"Despite its small size, Number 19-1948 is a masterpiece of Pollock by the extreme care of its realization. This painting was sold $ 58M including premium."
Thursday
Pierre Tavlitzki replied to Pierre Tavlitzki's discussion The Unwanted Contribution of Picasso to Pop Art in the group Modern Art
"The result, $ 56M including premium, may seem huge for an appropriation. It reinforces the fact that the pop art of the early 1960s was one of the most important artistic revolutions."
Thursday
Pierre Tavlitzki replied to Pierre Tavlitzki's discussion The Hallucinations of Jean-Michel Basquiat in the group Current Art
"Well supported by the media effort of Christie's, this painting is recognized as one of the masterpieces by Basquiat. The result, $ 49M including premium, is exceeding all expectations."
Thursday
Pierre Tavlitzki replied to Pierre Tavlitzki's discussion The Privacy of the Modern Woman in the group Current Art
"Compared with the Red shirt sold last year, the estimate was far too reasonable. The art market now welcomes the last paintings by Lichtenstein. The Nude with yellow flower was sold $ 23.6 million including premium."

Italian Experiences for Aston Martin

Italy dominates the market of Gran Turismo cars, and brands from the rest of Europe subcontract to the best Italian specialists. Aston Martin is one of the most ambitious. The DB4 already has a strong Italian inspiration, but it is not enough to conquer the market. In 1960, the British brand is looking for new alliances, and has some DB4 GT coachworked by Zagato and Bertone. The Zagato will have some success and 20 cars will be made​​. However the first DB4 GT Bertone coupe will not have a…See More
