Jean-Michel Basquiat, The Field Next to the Other Road (1981)
The 13-foot painting, titled The Field Next to the Other Road (1981) was included in Christie's evening sale of postwar and contemporary art in New York on May 13 and was the sixth highest price of the blockbuster $658.5 million auction, and the second-highest price for a Basquiat at auction to date.
The successful buyer was not identified, but as artnet News' Brian Boucher reported at the time, New York dealer Christophe van de Weghe was the reluctant under-bidder, telling artnet News that he stopped bidding at $33 million.
