drum roll please… (in alphabetical order) lucian freud, jasper johns, jeff koons (no link for you!!), brice marden (?!), bruce nauman, robert rauschenberg, gerhard richter, richard serra, frank stella (yeesh), and cy twombly. just below the top but still with starting prices in the millions: chuck close, david hockney, ellsworth kelly, anselm kiefer, claes oldenburg, robert ryman, and wayne thiebaud. read the article for the filthy details. (makes me happy cy twombly is on that list, i had no idea people were actually willing to hang his work, thought he was just a name dropped into discourse. and of course full warmth for lucien. pretty much what you’d expect i guess, bright spots, but kind of sad somehow. )
