Question

This trend doesn't seem to be going away anytime soon, as evidenced from Christie's 19% increase of global sales of modern art and impressionist.

The first of the works is Picasso's "Women of Algiers (Version 0)" that was sold for almost $180 mil lion. The vibrant painting is one of 15 paintings in a series that go by the letter A through 0 , painted from 1954 through 1955.

The second is Giacometti 's human-sized sculpture "Pointing Man," that was picked up for a little over $140 million . The skinny 1.5 meter-tall bronze statue has been privately owned for 45 years. It is one of six made by the artist, four of which are in museums.
