Post War and Contemporary Offerings: Murakami's Miss KO2

Phillips de Pury & Co has a great Philippe Segalot curated sale this week. I love Murakami's Miss KO2 uptown at the new space on 57th Street.
TAKASHI MURAKAMI
Miss ko².1997.Oil paint, acrylic, synthetic resin, fiberglass, and iron. 72 x 25 x 32 1/2 in.  Edition of 3 plus 1 AP.

And Cattelan gives new meaning to the phrase "trophy wife" with this beautiful bust of Stephanie Seymour:

Stephanie. 2003. Colored pigment, wax, synthetic hair, glass, metal. 43 5/16 x 25 9/16 x 16 9/16 in. Edition of 3 plus 1 AP.



Christie's rules the roost with a wide range of brand name art works and Sotheby's follows suit.
