This work, an example of Pop Art, illustrates Lichtenstein’s response to Abstract Expressionism by erasing the artist’s hand from the artwork. Another key fine art lot in the catalog is a lithograph by American artist Robert Rauschenberg, titled Poster For Peace.

In its upcoming sale, Auctions at Showplace will present a wide variety of fine art, decorative art, jewelry, furniture, and more. Among the top lots is a 1971 color screenprint of Electric Chair by Andy Warhol. This medium-sized canvas is one of ten color screenprints by the artist. An image from Sing Sing prison was first used by Warhol in 1963 when New York State had its last execution. The artist uses a secondary palette of lavender, acid green, and teal in the Electric Chair prints, which contradicts the pathos portrayed, even as other artistic elements support it. The silkscreen process imparts to the prints an impression of loss, disappointment, and emptiness through irregularities, blurring, and murkiness. Another notable lot in the catalog is a colorful acrylic on canvas by American Pop artist Peter Max. Vase of Flowers displays the Neo-Fauvist color style of the artist at his best. By juxtaposing diversity and harmony of colors, Max transforms a still life of flowers into a flowing composition. The offered piece is signed at the top left and is accompanied by an authenticity letter.
