Auction introduction: This May, we are pleased to present the first edition of Contemporary Discoveries in Milan, which brings together diverse artworks of various media, regions and eras from each of Sotheby’s fine art departments. This sale series is designed with the collector of today in mind: both emerging buyers, who have no reason to limit the scope of their collections, as well as connoisseurs whose collections already transcend traditional categories. Ranging from paintings and prints, to photographs and sculptures, the lineup already includes iconic works by Alighiero Boetti, Salvo, Vanessa Beecroft, Nan Goldin, Ed Rusha and Andy Warhol among others.
