I saw Basquiat movie the other day (14 years later), and wondered how much he and his buddy Andy Warhol's paintings were going for. I found that Andy has the distinction of being one of the five $100 Million Dollar men. Below are the top five most expensive (without time adjustments) paintings ever sold in USD.
5. Andy Warhol's "Eight Elvises"(WTF), 1963 sold for $100,000,000
4. Pablo Picasso's "Garcon a la Pipe", 1905 sold for $104,168,000
3. Gustav Klimt's "Adele Bloch-Bauer" I sold for then record $135,000,000 in 2006
2. Willem de Kooning's "Woman III", sold for 137,500,000 in 2006
1. Jackson Pollocks's "Number 5 1948", 1948 sold for a rumored $140,000,000 also in 2006
(I wonder if the art bubble also burst in 2006).
