About This Auction

The May 14th Collect: Post War & Contemporary Art auction is a standalone sale that is dually in strategic support and complement of our May 13th marquee Post War & Contemporary Art auction, with 117 thoughtful arranged lots, 116 of which are priced under $5,000, designed with accessibility, discovery and following one's heart without impact to the wallet in mind. The composition of the sale leans heavily to the contemporary with the bulk of the offering being produced in the 21st century and many within the last decade. Amongst the most avantgarde and captivating of the freshly produced are compellingly playful but not less poigiant examples from Hunt Slonem, Rosson Crow, Adam Helms, Marianne Vitale, John Virtue, Barnaby Furnas, N. Dash, Bella Foster and John Buck. Of note from the 20th century are stellar lots from Donald Sultan, William Christenberry, Elaine Kurtz, Ota Janeček, Gottifried Honneger and Vladimir Veličković. Also engagingly on offer are vivid contemporary color photographs by Aberlardo Morrell, Andrew Moore, Laurie Simmons, Stéphane Couturier and Peter Bialobrzeski. Eye pleasing multiples from 20th century masters Elsworth Kelly, Jasper Johns, John Baldessari, Öyvind Fahlström, Josef Albers and Frank Stella. Freeman's welcomes you to explore the auction with a mind open to impulse buys and forever homes for newly found friends.
