Impressionist and Modern Masters net 1/2 of a billion at auction

New York: According to the New York Times,
Christie's sold almost $500 million at it's featured event.
Luminary collectors like Lauder and Andrew Lloyd Weber made this historic night what it was. Andrew Lloyd Weber, one of the supporters behind fine artist Robert Heindel, was actually unable to sell his Blue Period Picasso portrait. The article indicates that the Picasso was withdrawn from auction due to it's alledged connection with the wrongful siezures of Jewish owned art by the Nazi's during the Holocaust. Even without the sale, the evening once again set a higher pricing threshold for postwar art - something that was discussed at the GALLERY M Modern Master's selling exhibit on October 21,22 and 23.

Internationalism defines gallery


On Nov. 1, GALLERY M reached a milestone. The excitement of the start of it's 11th year in Cherry Creek is being hi-lighted with a major retrospective of Andreas Feininger's vintage and modern photographs. While the show officially begins Nov. 10th, collectors new and old have already found "River to Road" a classic view of what made America, America. The gallery welcomed Elena Ralph (Miss Israel 2005) as part of local visitors and collectors who have already previewed the show. Make sure to join GALLERY M on Friday, Nov. 10th for the festive, champagne champagne opening and introduction of the Feininger collection. (L to R: Ralph, Hayutin, Mrs and Mr. Cohn).
