Andy Warhol’s $20M-plus portrait of Basquiat to go on view at Nets games

An Andy Warhol portrait of artist Jean-Michel Basquiat that’s expected to fetch more than $20 million at auction next month will be shown off by Christie’s at two Nets home games.

The 1982 Warhol work will hang in Brooklyn’s Barclays Center for two days during the Nets season opening games at a new VIP venue inside the arena called the Crown Club, on October 24th and 25th.

It’ll be the first time the portrait will be on view in New York since it was featured in the Whitney Museum’s Warhol retrospective “From A to B and Back Again” in 2019.
