6 Andy Warhol (1928–1987). B/W Ads (Are You “Different?”). 1985/86. Acrylic and silkscreen ink on canvas. 50.9 × 40.3 cm. Estimate: CHF 50 000/70 000 In the mid-1980s, Warhol created a series of black-and- white silkscreens with subjects taken from advertise- ments, diagrams, maps or other illustrations from news- papers and magazines. These late works complete the circle back to the early Pop Art paintings which sparked Warhol's success in the 1960s. Hisao Domoto (1928–2013). Untitled. 1961. Oil on canvas. 97 × 130 cm. Estimate: CHF 30 000/50 000 Trained in Kyoto and Paris, Hisao Domoto was convinced that in painting, the substance and physicality of colour convey energy and meaning. A central element of his work is the oscillation between Far East- ern and Western art. Together with Toshimitsu Imai, Domoto brought the tenets of Art Informel from Europe to Japan. Sam Francis (1923–1994). Untitled. 1990. Watercolour and acrylic on Japan paper. 60.5 × 45.2 cm. Estimate: CHF 18 000/24 000 The abstract-expressionist works of Francis – who was fascinated by Jungian psychology and Japanese aesthetics – reflect his lifelong preoc- cupation with the philosophical riddles of colour. Max Bill (1908–1994). Doppelfläche als Sechseck (Double surface as a hexagon). 1968. Gilt brass. 76 x 24 x 25 cm. Estimate: CHF 30 000/40 000 Bill's experiments with tectonic-abstract, sometimes "endless" forms were based on mathematical and logical laws. © The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc. / 2020, ProLitteris, Zurich © 2020, ProLitteris, Zurich © Sam Francis Foundation, California / 2020, ProLitteris, Zurich
