Leading Christies evening sale is an epic large-scale double portrait by Jean-Michel Basquiat from 1982, a pivotyear in the artists career (illustrated on page 1; estimate on request). Untitled forms part of the series o
important double portraits, including Untitled (Two Heads on Gold) and Dustheads (which fetched a record pric
of $48.8m when it sold at Christies New York in May). The full-length double portraits of 1982 marked Basquiat
coming of age in the art world. In 1982 he was 21, he had just met his idol, Andy Warhol, and the success of hi
gallery show at Annina Nosei that March gave him a new-found freedom, enabling him to earn a living from h
paintings. The cartoonish figures in this work evoke the joyous spirit of this heady time when he had just broke
through to art world super-star status. Towering above the viewer, this painting is striking for its monument
scale, the decisiveness of Basquiats line and the sheer brilliance of his signature colour palette of vibrant red
electric blue, and blaring yellow.
Boldly articulated in Basquiats confident scrawl, Untitled is a defiant assertion of artistic and individua
independence, expressing a confidence to match his new-found fame. Its two figures, with their rhythm
movements and screaming features evoke the chaotic energy of the New York underground scene in which th
artist was immersed. Basquiat painted impulsively, pouring out his creativity in a cathartic stream of pent-u
emotion. Working quickly in oil stick and acrylic, he combined drawing and painting in a graffiti-like style t
create a fresh medium he called extra large. Untitledexemplifies this explosive, extra large sensibility, with
raw and spontaneous painterly energy that echoes the urban hubbub of 1980s New York and hints at th
inspiration Basquiat found in and around his downtown studio.
Francis Outred, Christie's Head of Post-War & Contemporary Art, Europe: Following the doubling of the worlrecord for Basquiat in New York at $48.8m forDustheadsfrom 1982, Christies is thrilled to be offering anothe
magnificent even larger scale double portrait from the same year. Featuring the same iconic double portra
motif, Untitled (1982) is a more raw and direct explosion of mark making in primary colours. Speaking of th
influence of Picasso, Twombly, Dubuffet, the street and tribal art, not to mention the artists own response to hi
new-found fame and freedom, this painting pulsates with Basquiats creative energy.
Another star work in the sale is a masterpiece by Peter Doig,Jetty(1994), which dates from a pivotal moment ithe artist's career and has remained in the same prestigious collection since the year of its creation (illustrate
above; estimate: 4,000,000-6,000,000). Executed on a monumental scale, Jettycreates an idealised vision of
landscape, vast and all encompassing, the lake at its heart suffused with the blazing colours of an Indian summe
sunset. Taking a scenic postcard as his point of departure, Jetty is a nostalgia-tinged rendering of Alberta
Cameron Lake in Western Canada.

Although this is a figurative image, the composition veers into abstraction, with its fire-fly flecks of colour an
skeins of paint weaving across the surface, taking the image in and out of focus and creating a painterl
meditation on the way we see and remember. As the artist has said, I never really try to create real spaces on
painted spaces. Thats all I am interested in. That may be why there is never really any specific time or place in m
paintings.
Francis Outred, Christie's Head of Post-War & Contemporary Art, Europe: Peter Doig's 'Jetty' was painted i1994 - a key moment in his career and has been in the same private collection ever since. It has only been seen i
Britain once before at Doigs Tate retrospective in 2008. With its romantic vision of a lone figure on a jett
watching a canoe drifting in the midst of a vast, pointillist lake at twilight, this atmospheric work hovers on th
edge of abstraction and exemplifies Doig's painterly vision. Last February a Doig painting from 1991 made
record price of 7.6m at Christies London and were truly excited to be offering another rare Doig masterpiece.
Jettywas painted in 1994, the same year the artist was nominated for the Turner Prize and won the first prize i
the Prix Eliette von Karajan. Works from this year are now widely considered among the best of his career, wit
Jetty standing out as a formative work in his artistic practice. This painting was personally selected by Doi
alongside Pine House (Rooms for Rent) to feature as centrepieces of his first solo exhibition at the New Yor
gallery, Gavin Brown's enterprise in 1994, with the artist driving it himself from Ontario to Manhattan to ensur
its inclusion. The present owner bought the work from that 1994 show. Several works from this important yea
are housed within international museum collections including Ski Jacket, 1994, Tate Modern, London, BoileHouse, 1994, promised to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and Corn Cob, 1994, Los Angeles Count
Museum of Art. Doigs practice is one of displacement. He lived in Canada from 1966-1979 and 1986-1989, but
was not until he had moved to London to attend the Chelsea School of Art that he began revisiting and relivin
the landscapes of his youth. Based on an image found in a postcard, this painting, along with others that he ha
created throughout his peripatetic life, is the result of a desire to depict and represent in paint his memories
feelings and experiences. Also featured in the Christie's London evening auction ofPost-War & Contemporary A
is another visionary painting by Peter Doig entitled White Out. Offered from the famed Collection of Marce
Brient, it was created in 1992 and will be presented with an estimate of 700,000-1,000,000. In addition, th
evening auction will include a work on paper by Doig, Canoe Lake created in 1999 with an estimate of 80,000
120,000 that is another example of Doigs celebrated imagery of canoes.
POST-WAR CLASSICSBY WARHOL,LICHTENSTEIN,KLEIN AND DE STAL
An outstanding example from Andy Warhols celebrated series of ColoreCampbells Soup Cans, the present work is one of four from the series remaine
in the renowned Sonnabend Collection until Ileana Sonnabends death in 200
(estimate: 2,250,000-3,250,000; illustrated right). An icon of 1960s America
culture, Andy Warhols Campbells Soup Can, first conceived in 1962, dramatical
changed the landscape of Post-War art. Sonnabend, an influential New Yorgallerist of the period, acquired her Colored Campbells Soup Can from the a
dealer Leo Castelli, her friend and former husband. Sonnabend was a pivota
figure in the careers and fortunes of numerous great American artists, becomin
an early patron of Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns as well as Warho
whose paintings she proudly owned and mounted on her walls at her New Yor
and Venice homes, as well as exhibited in her gallery. Other examples of Colore
Campbell's Soup Cans are now in major museums and private collections acros
the world including: the Menil Collection, Houston, Staatliche Museum Berlin
Sammlung Marx, Berlin, and the Milwaukee Art Museum.

With its graphic intensity and striking array of hand-stencilled indigo blue Benday dots, Cup of Coffee (estimat
1,500,000-2,000,000; illustrated right) is one of the earliest examples ofRoy Lichtensteins Pop imagery.
Executed in 1961, this work is a crucial marker of the advent of Pop Art in America and
forms part of a series of single object paintings that represented quintessential American
life and were sourced from mass-produced newsprint ads. This painting marks the first time
the artist used the Benday dots that have come to be seen as his trademark. With the
artists pencil-marks and corrections still visible, it is rare and remarkable for its raw, hand-
crafted quality.
Drenched in the artists signature International Klein Blue, YvesKleins SE 181 (estimate: 1,400,000-1,800,000; illustrated left),with its elegant oceanic sponge form is one of only three,
extremely rare versions in the artists oeuvre in which the sponge and base ar
organically linked by Kleins trademark blue, creating a tree-like form. This spong
sculpture embodies the essence of the artists celebrated Sculptures ponges that hav
recently made record prices at Christies (in June 2012, Kleins sponge relief Le Rose d
bleu (RE 22), fetched a record 23.5m at Christies London). Made in 1960 at the heigh
of the artists career, when the artist picked up a paint-drenched sponge and decided t
turn it into a sculpture, this intricate, bulbous work has an otherworldly quality. Formin
part of the same collection since 1986, this is the first time SE 181 has been seen by thpublic for over 25 years.
Painted in 1954, Marseille (estimate: 1,000,000-1,500,000; illustrated right) dates
from the pinnacle ofNicolas de Stals career when nature and landscape became hispreferred subjects through which to explore colour and form. Infused with the
brilliant light and vibrant colour of the South of France, Marseille is one of de Stals
Mediterranean paintings, which are among his most celebrated works. The painting
has a strong exhibition history, first shown the year of it was made at Galerie Jacques
Dubourg. It was subsequently first seen in London at the Whitechapel Art Gallery in
1956 and at the Venice Biennale in 1964. In 1966 Marseille was shown in America,
touring to the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, The Art Institute of Chicago and theSolomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York. Marseille was last publicly seen in the
United Kingdom at Nicolas de Stal, Tate Gallery, London in 1981. Also featured in this
section of the sale is an important still life painted by Nicolas de Stal in 1953, entitled
Fleurs blanches et rouges dans un vase gris (estimate: 600,000-900,000).

LEADINGCONTEMPORARYPAINTERS
AT CHRISTIE'S LONDONLondon On 25 and 26 June, Christies summer auctions of Post-
War & Contemporary Art will present a particularly strong
section dedicated to some of the most interesting international
painters working today, including exceptional works by Adriana
Varejo, Ali Banisadr, John Currin and Tauba Auerbach among
others.
Executed in 1991, O Milagre dos Peixes (Miracle of the Fishes) isthe first of Brazilian-born artist Adriana Varejos Sea and Tiles
series of paintings (estimate: 200,000-300,000; illustrated
right). A very early example of the artist allowing deep cracks to
carve through her work, O Milagre dos Peixes surface creates
textural interest, forming different pictorial surfaces depending
on the way in which the plaster cracks. Redolent of shards of
broken azulejos, the work suggests the dissonance and
eclecticism that suffuses Brazilian culture in the wake of
imperialism.
New York-based artist Ali Banisadr is a key member of a new generation of contemporary painters and
headed Flash Arts list of Top 100 Artists of 2011. His work is held in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New
York, the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, and the British Museum, London. The inclusion of
Banisadrs In the Name Ofin the Post-War & Contemporary Art Evening auction marks a rare opportunity to
obtain an important work by this celebrated young artist whose work has only come to auction once before.
Painted in 2008 on an epic scale, Banisadrs In the Name Of is a chaotic, dream-like vision, meticulously
rendered in a rich palette of reds and oranges
(estimate: 40,000-60,000; illustrated left). From a
Gods-eye view, as implied by the title, Banisadr
presents an irregular, geometric expanse
reminiscent of a circus tent or stained glass window,descending into an energetic melee of humanity
throbbing in and out of focus. This oscillation
between narrative and abstraction forms the core of
the artists practice. Banisadr moved to the US from
his native Iran at the age of 12 and his work
expresses his experience of belonging to two
distinct cultures. In the Name Of was exhibited in
2009 at Unveiled: New Art from the Middle East,
Saatchi Gallery, London.

Painted in 1997, John Currins Daughter and Mother is a key work by
the artist that showcases his celebrated talent for de-stabilising the
conventions of American imagery and the art historical canon (estimate:
1,400,000-1,800,000; illustrated right). From 1992 through 1998,
Currin employed the traditional genre of portraiture to explore the
often clichd representation of women in western culture. Examples
from this period include middle-aged women, pulp-novel pin-ups, and
pneumatic blondes. The year 1996 marked a transitional moment in
Currins practice as he began to use a variety of painterly techniqueswithin a single work, conflating the glossy perfection found in
contemporary visual culture with faces rendered in heavily applied
impasto. Currin has maintained that these two painting techniques
symbolise different kinds of intimacy, encouraging the viewer to engage
with the work on a several levels. Daughter and Mother is perhaps more chaste than the artists usual
subject matter, but continues in the Currin's tradition of working with voluptuous curves and seductive
women. Mixing iconic compositions from art history with the artificially rendered stock imagery of
contemporary illustration, Currin creates images which are both everyday and uncanny.
Exploring the traditional distinctions between content, dimension andimage, Tauba Auerbachs cerebral compositions challenge our
conventional ways of seeing. Elegant and intriguing, Untitled (Fold)
radiates with a subtle luminosity, capturing the gentle rays of light across
what appears at first to be pure white folds of cloth, lined with creases
(estimate: 200,000-300,000; illustrated left). Upon closer inspection,
however, Untitled (Fold) reveals itself to be a masterful, modern example
of trompe loeil. One of Auerbachs celebrated Folds series, the work is
illusory this is a perfectly flat surface canvas. Painted in 2010, Untitled
(Fold) dates from the same year Auerbach exhibited at the Museum of
Modern Art PS1, New York, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art,
the New Museum, New York, Castello di Rivoli Museum of ContemporaryArt, Turin, and the Whitney Biennial, Whitney Museum of American Art,
New York.

Mara Garca Yelo, Director, Post-War and Contemporary Art, Christie's Spain: We are honoured to bring
to London the exceptional collection Homage to Chillida. First showed at the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao
in 2006, the exhibition featured works by a wide range of major international artists, who made work in
response to the Basque master Eduardo Chillida. To be offered for sale in the Christie's auctions of Post-War
& Contemporary Art on 25 and 26 June, this selection includes works by Anish Kapoor, David Hockney,
Ellsworth Kelly and Zao Wou Ki, among others. Also part of the sale is a monumental masterpiece by Chillida
himself, the largest by the artist ever erected in a public space in London, which will be specially installed in
the gardens of The Royal Hospital Chelsea, offering a rare opportunity to see this spectacular work in theUK.
A master of Post-War sculpture, Eduardo Chillida made work that explored both material and form, but
beyond that, he became a philosopher and an architect of the void. Throughout his career, Chillida
questioned notions of time, space and material in a variety of different media that include iron, alabaster
and terracotta. Highlighting the Homage to Chillida collection is one of Eduardo Chillidas grandest and
most ambitious works, Buscando la Luz IV (Searching for the Light IV), 2001, a spectacular 8-metre tall
monolith, standing as a tribute to light and to the earth (estimate on request; illustrated on page 1).
Rendered out of corten steel, Buscando La Luz IVis a unique form from the artists last large-scale sculpture
series, completed only a year before Chillidas death. It marks the culmination of his pioneeringinvestigations into scale and the architecture of space.
The artists brought together in Homage to Chillida are
united by their admiration for the Spanish artist, and this
collection expresses the esteem in which Chillida was held
by his peers. Many of these works are poignant reflections
of artistic friendships forged with the Spanish artist known
for his charismatic persona and warm disposition.
Among the highlights of
Homage to Chillida is
Ellsworth Kellys
Untitled (EK 692), a
graceful embodiment of
the artists elegant
minimalist aesthetic
executed in 1983
(estimate: 250,000-
350,000; illustrated above). Revealing its materiality and physicality
through the medium of weathered steel, Untitled is a sculptural
counterpoint to the Kellys painterly practice and a fitting homage to theartists friend Eduardo Chillida.
Untitled (Homage to Chillida) is a sculpture made by Cy Twombly from
2003, appears to serve as a kind of monument or memorial to the art of
sculpture and to its innate poetry (estimate: 600,000-800,000; illustrated
right). Cast in bronze in an edition of four, Twomblys sculpture takes the
form of a tower of disparate architectonic forms all made from found
objects that collectively build to a peak in the form of a large and
seemingly petrified flower blooming at the top.

Forming part of a series of homages created
by Zao Wou Ki, Hommage Chillida (2004)
is one of the most compelling paintings by
the artist produced in the last years his life
(estimate: 250,000-350,000; illustrated
right). A monumental canvas spanning
nearly two metres, Hommage Chillida isamong the largest of the artists entire
Hommage series. Offering a painterly
impression of the epic landscape at the foot of Mount Igeldo, Hommage Chillida captures the feeling of
standing at the crest of the bay in San Sebastin, where Eduardo Chillida placed his seminal El Peine del
Viento. A poetic vision, Hommage Chillida is a tribute to Zaos urge to acknowledge the greatness of those
who inspired him while leaving his own significant legacy.
