Hopper's Warhol Prints Pop at Christie's

January 11, 2011 by Marion Maneker

Reuters caught the big pops from two Warhol prints from the Dennis Hopper estate that sold well above the high estimates today at Christie’s during an Interiors sale:

An Andy Warhol portrait of Mao Zedong that actor Dennis Hopper shot two bullets through sold for $302,500 at Christie’s on Tuesday, more than 10 times its high estimate. […] Another iconic Warhol screenprint from 1967 of Marilyn Monroe fetched $206,500, or about four times the pre-sale estimate.
