Join us LIVE from London for an evening of extraordinary auctions. Starting at 4:00pm BST, join us for The Now Evening Auction, which brings together a selection of works by the best artists of the 21st century. The sale serves as a platform for the most coveted, cutting-edge works on the market, as well as providing a masterpiece context for well-established artists. Continuing at 5:00pm BST, and coinciding with the re-opening of the National Portrait Gallery in London in June, Sotheby’s Modern and Contemporary Evening Auction will open with Face to Face: A Celebration of Portraiture, a tightly curated selection of masterpieces exploring the connections between artist and subject. Following this opening sequence, the sale is honoured to present Gustav Klimt’s great masterpiece Dame mit Fächer (Lady with a Fan) as the highlight of the 2023 summer auction season in London. Accompanying this iconic painting are major works by artists of the Modern era including Pablo Picasso, Wassily Kandinsky, Rene Magritte and Claude Monet, as well as post-war masters Barbara Hepworth, Frank Auerbach, and Cy Twombly and giants of the late Twentieth Century Jean-Michel Basquiat, Gerhard Richter and Cindy Sherman.
