(Drivebycuriosity) - In the recent two weeks New York´s global auction houses had their huge spring auctions. Besides masses of contemporary works there were also a lot Impressionists and other epochs. Since I focus on contemporary art I display here just some tidbits from the galleries at Christie´s, Sotheby`s & Phillips.
On top of this post you can see my favorite: René Magritte´s "Le Banquet".
At Phillips I discovered this wonderful Monet: "La route de Vétheuil, effet de neige".
I also love "Interior with a Stove" by Vilhelm Hammershøi.
Above follows "Sans Titre" by the Chilean surrelist Matta.
This beauty by Egon Schiele also caught my eyes: "Stehender Akt mit Draperietuch"
Moisle Kisling´s females can easily be recognized by his idiosyncratic style: "Femme à l'écharpe bleue".
Robert Henri´s "Portrait of Sarah Burke" is an eye catcher as well.
Above follows Leonor Fini`s "Le Train".
I couldn`t resist to collect some of the ubiquitous nudes: Max Pechstein`s “Akt Ill, sitzend von vorne (Marta)” paintings by: Pierra Bonnard: "Nus’Habillitant" & "Nu de profil, jambe droite levée".
Last but not least Alexander Calder`s “Cornucopia”.
Enjoy!
