Phillips Appoints Andrew Massad as

Senior International Specialist

 

Strategic Hire Underscores the House’s Commitment to the Contemporary Art Market, Amid Continued International Demand

 

 

 

 

NEW YORK – 13 OCTOBER – Phillips is pleased to announce the appointment of Andrew Massad as Senior International Specialist. Based in New York, Andrew has become a central figure in the market during the three decades he spent at Christie’s, as well as his recent time as an art advisor and private dealer at Massad Fine Art.

 

Jean-Paul Engelen, President, Americas and Worldwide Co-Head of 20th Century & Contemporary Art,said, “At Phillips, we have spent the last few years broadening our pool of talent, leading to a string of record-breaking results for the company. Andy’s depth of knowledge and unparalleled experience, especially with works created between 1970 – 2010, will complement the expertise of our strong and accomplished team.”

 

Robert Manley, Deputy Chairman and Worldwide Co-Head of 20th Century & Contemporary Art, added, “Joining Christie’s in 1991, Andy was not only part of the birth of the contemporary auction market, but was also a driving force in its development, debuting such iconic artists as Yoshitomo Nara and Maurizio Cattelan, among others. From Brice Marden and Gerhard Richter to Jonas Wood and Vija Celmins, Andy’s passion and dedication to the field is unmatched. He will be an invaluable member of our international team as we expand our reach to a larger network of collectors across the globe.”

 

Andrew Massad, Senior International Specialist, said, "Phillips' explosive momentum is fueled by a commitment to offering unrivaled expertise and bespoke services for collectors. Phillips has a nimbleness and drive towards innovation that pushes the boundaries of what an auction house can achieve, which is always informed and inspired by the art we sell. Artists express the human condition in all its rich diversity and we revel in the discovery. The team at Phillips understands these bedrock values and that's why it is the perfect fit for me. I look forward with anticipation and excitement to my contributing to the future of Phillips with a team that demonstrates excellence."

 

In his twenty-nine years as a leading rainmaker at Christie’s, Andy facilitated the sale of works from countless private collections, including the Estate of Emily and Jerry Spiegel, Phil Schrager, and Anita Reiner, along with many other works from collections of distinction. He was also responsible for such favorite past sales as Roy Lichtenstein's Red and White Brushstrokes, 1965, and Peter Doig's Reflection-What Does Your Soul Look Like, 1996 as well as Njideka Akunyili Crosby's I Refuse to be Invisible, 2010, and David Wojnarowicz's Science Lesson, 1982-83.

 

On the heels of a record-breaking year, Phillips hosted its most successful auction in company history this past May. With a robust market, as well as a strong international team in place exclusively dedicated to works of 20th century and contemporary art, the momentum Phillips has generated will continue, moving forward into the fall season and beyond.

November Evening Sale of 20th Century & Contemporary Art

Georgia O’Keeffe

Crab’s Claw Ginger Hawaii, 1939

Estimate: $4-6 million  

 

NEW YORK – 7 OCTOBER 2021 – Phillips is pleased to announce the first highlight of the New York Evening Sale of 20th Century & Contemporary Art – Georgia O’Keeffe’s Crab’s Claw Ginger Hawaii, a seminal work from her Hawaii series with exceptional provenance.  The sale on 17 November marks the first time the painting is coming to auction, having first been owned by The Dole Pineapple Company for 40 years, before being acquired by Thurston Twigg-Smith in 1987, a prominent, fifth-generation Hawaiian known for his philanthropy and contributions to the arts.  Crab’s Claw Ginger Hawaii is the most significant of O’Keeffe’s Hawaii pictures to appear at auction in three decades and the first to be offered in a Phillips Evening Sale of 20th Century & Contemporary Art.

Elizabeth Goldberg, Senior International Specialist, American Art and Deputy Chairwoman, Americas, said, “Georgia O’Keeffe’s experience in Hawaii inspired some of the most fascinating and visually striking works in her oeuvre. Of the approximately twenty paintings O’Keeffe created during her time in Hawaii, fourteen are in museum collections.  We are thrilled to offer Crab’s Claw Ginger Hawaii in our New York Evening sale, presenting collectors with the rare opportunity to acquire an important work by this iconic artist. With a storied provenance and a remarkable place in the art historical canon, we loo

Phillips Announces Highlights from the London Sales of

20th Century & Contemporary Art

Including Works from the Miles & Shirley Fiterman Collection;

Property from the Collection of Alex Rodriguez;

And Property from the Estate of Ryan Brant

As well as a Historically Important Luc Tuymans Painting

Luc Tuymans b. 1958

Schwarzheide, 1986

Estimate: £800,000-1,000,000

LONDON – 14 JUNE 2019 – Phillips’ June sales of 20th Century & Contemporary Art will offer works from a number of private collections, including the Miles & Shirley Fiterman Collection, property from the Estate of Ryan Brant, and property from the collection of American baseball star Alex Rodriguez. The Evening Sale, taking place on 27 June, will present 36 lots of Modern, Post-War, and Contemporary Art, and will be followed by the Day Sale on 28 June, comprising 160 lots.

Luc Tuymans’s Schwarzheide, 1986, leads this season’s Evening Sale with unparalleled conceptual and historical significance. The painting – essentially a landscape depicting a line of sparse pine trees – appears to present an innocuous subject. However, taking its name after a World War II concentration camp, Schwarzheide belongs to a cycle of works that Tuymans commenced in the latter half of the 1980s, touching on themes of loss and violence in the context of the Holocaust. Tuymans has said of the work, “I wanted to make my paintings look old from the start, which is important because they are about memory.”Having resided in the same private collection since its execution, the work has been exhibited extensively over the last three decades, including showings at Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago, The Tate Modern in London, the Tokyo Opera City Art Gallery, and at Documenta IX in Kassel in 1992. It has recently been reproduced as an immense marble mosaic at the Palazzo Grassi, Venice, on the occasion of the artist’s solo exhibition La Pelle.
