We’ll sell this to you for $5,000

We’re not sure where Andy Warhol would have hung out on today’s Capitol Hill but his works will be on display in a special “pop-up selling event” this weekend in the Sole Repair event space:

Christie’s is pleased to announce a pop-up selling event in Seattle, as part of Andy Warhol at Christie’s, a multi-year, multi-platform partnership with The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. In collaboration with Wells Fargo, the selling event will be held October 3-8, at Sole Repair Shop. This exhibition will make available to the public a curated group of more than 40 photographs, prints and works on paper by the Pop Art superstar, with price points ranging from $2,500-$55,000, many of which have never been seen before. This exhibition is timed to coincide with the “Pop Departures” exhibition at the Seattle Art Museum, which features the work of Andy Warhol, among others.

Admission to see the works is free. “All works are drawn from the collection of The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, with proceeds benefitting the Foundation’s grant-making programs,” the announcement on the event notes. You can learn more at christies.com/warhol.
