Buyers looking for works by younger, less expensive artists may want to go to Phillips, de Pury and Co in Chelsea. The small boutique company is holding two sales this season, next Monday and Nov. 12. Of the two, the more interesting is what experts say is the first single-owner sale of contemporary photography.
Baroness Marion Lambert, wife of Baron Philippe Lambert, a member of the Belgian banking family, is selling her entire collection of 300 photographs by artists including Matthew Barney, Richard Prince, Robert Gober and Nan Goldin. The collection, which is expected to bring US$10 million, is well known to photography collectors and has been exhibited around the world for years.
