Jean-Michel Basquiat’s paintings have continued to lead Christie’s 20/21 sales in London, New York and Hong Kong throughout 2023. This season, Future Sciences Versus the Man (1982, estimate: £9,000,000-12,000,000), an outstanding work from his celebrated series of ‘stretcher’ paintings, will lead the 20th / 21st Century: London Evening Sale on 13 October. From Paula Rego’s theatrical composition to the densely-layered abstraction of Pam Evelyn’s work, the creative impact and legacy of pioneering British artists is represented throughout the 20th / 21st Century London Evening Sale.
