CHICAGO, IL.- On April 24 and 25, Freeman’s | Hindman brings a robust selection of paintings, sculptures, works on paper, and prints and multiples to market. Representing some of the most esteemed and coveted names in art history—from Pablo Picasso and Roy Lichtenstein to Louise Nevelson and Alex Katz—the Post War and Contemporary Art and Prints and Multiples auctions offer something for every collector.

Post War and Contemporary Art

Leading the April 24 Post War and Contemporary Art sale are two mesmerizing Alex Katz paintings from The Private Collection of Debra and Harry Seigle, Chicago, Illinois. Alex Katz’s Ariel (lot 13; estimate: $300,000 – 500,000) is a quietly moody portrait of one of Katz’s frequent muses. Katz’s deceptively simple and flat canvases defy two-dimensionality; their emotional depth has made him one of the most widely exhibited and enthusiastically collected artists of the past century.

Pat Steir’s atmospheric Small Ghost Waterfall (lot 72; estimate: $250,000 – 350,000) is also a standout within a sale full of women artists. The canvas, from Steir’s well-known Waterfalls series, reveals her incorporation of chance and chaos in her artistic practice; as she said, “I’m trying desperately to make chaos, but I make order.”

Louise Nevelson, one of the most important figures in 20th-century American sculpture, created a grand, large-scale relief called Untitled (lot 73; estimated value: $150,000 – 250,000), characterized by her distinctive use of black. In signature Nevelson fashion, Untitled defies dimensional classification by transcending space to occupy the realms of both painting and sculpture.

Additional Top Lots:

· Michael Goldberg, Sad Street (lot 24; estimate: $100,000 – 150,000)
· Al Held, Stereo III (lot 67; estimate: $80,000 – 120,000)
· Olga de Amaral, Cesta Lunar 35 (lot 73A; estimate: $80,000 – 120,000)

Prints and Multiples

The April 25 Prints and Multiples auction offers fine examples reaching across a broad time period. “Spanning over 500 years of art history, our spring Prints and Multiples auction aptly represents each important era,” says Monica Brown, Vice President, Head of Department, Prints and Multiples. “We are excited to present these works during our spring season in Chicago.”

Roy Lichtenstein’s Moonscape (from Landscapes) (lot 21; estimate: $70,000 – 90,000) leads the selection, a dynamic marriage of abstraction and Pop Art sensibility from the celebrated 20th-century artist. Andy Warhol’s Action Picture (lot 30; estimate: $60,000 – 80,000) features Western imagery, something Warhol was known to have an affinity for, and is notable for its unique coloration and turn away from portraiture to more complex compositions. Josef Albers’s Homage to the Square: Edition Keller Ia-Ik (lot 17; estimate: $60,000 – 80,000) represents a rare complete portfolio of Albers to come to the market, an unmissable collecting opportunity. Furthermore, a group of American master printmakers is aptly highlighted by Edward Hopper's mysterious and intriguing Night Shadows (lot 108; estimate: $15,000 – 25,000) from 1921.

Additional Top Lots:

· Frank Stella, Bermuda Petrel (lot 20; estimate: $40,000 – 60,000)

· David Hockney, Celia (La Bergère) (from Eight Lithographs to Benefit the Foundation for Contemporary Performance Arts, Inc.) (lot 26; estimate: $15,000 – 20,000)

· Pablo Picasso, Faune dévoilant une femme (from La Suite Vollard) (lot 69; estimate: $40,000 – 60,000)
