Warhol Auction

de bene esse: literally, of well-being, morally acceptable but subject to future validation or exception

Andy Warhol's $60 million Silver Car Crash silkscreen coming up for auction... and it's only been seen once in public in 26 years

Silver Car Crash (Double Disaster) by Andy Warhol: The silkscreen print with multiple photos of the aftermath of a car which collided into a tree, created in 1963
The piece belongs to Warhol's Death and Disaster series and captures the immediate aftermath of a car crashing into a tree. It measures 8 feet by 13 feet. Sotheby's is offering Warhol's silkscreen on Nov. 13. in New York. The auction house says it is one of only four 'Car Crash' works of that scale and the only one remaining in private hands.
