Sotheby鈥檚 Palm Beach is pleased to present Contemporary & Modern Masters; an exhibition showcasing the artists that shaped the twentieth century and beyond. On view from November 18th through January 7th, this selling exhibition features an exceptional selection of paintings, works on paper and sculpture that highlight the rich history and significant innovation characteristic of this period in art history. Included in the exhibition are the mesmeric landscapes of Georgia O鈥橩eeffe, monumental, gestural
works by Willem de Kooning and
Joan Mitchell, along with icons of Pop,
Andy Warhol,
Ed Ruscha and
Yayoi Kusama, among others.
Jean-Michel Basquiat鈥檚 visceral and distinctive self-portrait questions perception, while
Cy Twombly鈥檚 emotive and graceful strokes elusively challenge a contrasting narrative. Contemporary stars of more recent years, including
Jonas Wood and
Loie Hollowell, showcase the profound influence of a new generation. The exemplary archetypes on display in Palm Beach reflect the complex beliefs and experimentation that redefined an era of pure transcendent ingenuity.
