Highlights of Contemporary and 20th Century Italian Art

The exhibition of Contemporary and 20th Century Italian Art will be on view in London from 12 to 17 October 2013.

Important examples of German photography include Andreas Gursky's masterpiece Paris, Montparnasse, undoubtedly one of his most iconic works; alongside his vibrant Chicago Mercantile Exchange, which follows the highly successful sale of his 'Stock Exchange' pictures at Sotheby's London in June this year.

The Evening Auction includes works by many of the leading names in contemporary art from established 20th-century masters to noteworthy figures from today's young emerging art scene.
