In recent years, Freeman’s Modern & Contemporary Art department has enjoyed notable successes with modernist icons Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse and Marc Chagall, mid-century Abstract Expressionists Helen Frankenthaler, Richard Poussette-Dart and Hans Hoffman, as well as Pop Artists Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein and Tom Wesselmann, among many others. Our carefully curated and highly researched sales have presented special works, often hidden for years in private collections, that have fetched strong prices including rare works on paper by Clyfford Still and Zao Wou-Ki, and sculptures by Barbara Hepworth, Lynn Chadwick and Henry Moore.
Freeman’s also excels at presenting single-owner collections such as Pop Prints from the Collection of Robert J. Morrison offered in 2019 which was 100% sold and achieved $1.2 million, doubling its pre-sale low estimate total, or a collection of CoBrA and other modernist drawings and paintings from The Collection of Dr. Henry and Mrs. Fanny Levine, a sale that achieved $948,000 in October of 2020, just shy of its pre-sale high estimate. The department hold two auctions annually, in May and November.
