Vija Celmins, Untitled (Saturn). Starting bid $2,200.
"Celmins is known for her photo-realism and this print captures what it would be like to view Saturn with your naked eye - an offset lithograph based on a unique mezzotint, the work makes use of rich, velvety blacks and has a hazy quality to it, a product of the medium. I have an affinity for tiny prints and this piece is like having a little slice of the solar system." – Kat Elliott-Moskwa

Damien Hirst, Xylene Cyanol Dye Solution. Starting bid $7,500.
"Hirst’s spot paintings and prints can look random and mechanical at first glance, but I find there’s a simple beauty in the harmony of colors." – Meaghan Hecksher

Gerhard Richter, Seestück I (Butin 23). Starting bid $4,800.
"Richter has become synonymous with vibrant abstract paintings on a grand scale, but I love this early offset lithograph from 1969. Measuring just a little over a foot square and rendered in grey scale, it stands in apparent contrast to the artist’s monumental work, and yet it’s easy to see how the palette-applied swaths of color of his later canvasses evolved out of these pale clouds." – Meaghan Hecksher

Lee Bontecou, Untitled. Starting bid $1,100.
"This lithograph exemplifies my love for prints that aesthetically relate to the artist’s work in other mediums. Looking into the depths of this image is like peering into the dark center of a Lee Bontecou sculpture." – Molly Steiger

Edward Ruscha, Various Small Fires; Nine Swimming Pools; A Few Palm Trees; And Colored People (Engberg B2, B8, B13, B16). Starting bid $3,800.
"These books are small time capsules, a mini collection of Ed Ruscha’s portrayal of a bygone era. I immediately imagine myself lounging by a swimming pool or under a palm tree in late 60s California." – Molly Steiger

Elizabeth Catlett, Gossip. Starting bid $500.
"This work exemplifies Elizabeth Catlett’s fusion of African American, Mexican and feminist themes. Experimenting with inkjet and photolithography at the age of 90, Catlett invites us to sit down and observe an intimate discussion between friends." – Kat Elliott-Moskwa

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Femme Qui Se Lave - La Toilette. Starting bid $6,500.
"This classic image by Lautrec encapsulates everything I love about his printmaking. His minimal use of muted colors invites close looking - what appears to be just a scene of a woman washing up gains another layer of context when you study the reflection in the mirror." – John Maher

Sol Lewitt, Project Box. Starting bid $2,200.
"This is such a delightful object. It displays Lewitt’s characteristic use if geometry, line and color, and I love that it can be used too!" – John Maher

Beatriz Milhazes, O Pato. Starting bid $22,000.
"I’ve been thrilled to see the number of female artists represented in our sales grow in recent years. Milhazes is one of these pioneering women whose work has gained much-deserved recognition both critically and in the marketplace. Her use of color and texture to create layered, organic compositions is a delight, and I love the whimsical title of this piece – O Pato – The Duck!" – Mary Bartow

Phillip Guston, East Side. Starting bid $4,200.
"This lithograph was published shortly before Guston died and embodies many of the themes and imagery of his later work. I love how the bare lightbulb, biomorphic single chair and crumbling wall with exposed brick are illustrated in such a lugubrious yet cartoonish way. I personally think his prints are undervalued." – Mary Bartow

Gerhard Richter, Flow (P16). Starting bid $6,500.
"Flow (P16) is one of many high-quality facsimile objects Richter made with HENI Productions after 2014 based on his Flow paintings. By using diasec mounted to aluminum, the surface of these works have a certain depth and a luminous quality that I love." – Chanler Rutherfurd

Andy Warhol, Details of Renaissance Paintings (Leonardo Da Vinci, The Annunciation, 1472) (Feldman & Schellmann II.320). Starting bid $11,000.
"I love Warhol’s Details of Renaissance Paintings series from 1984. By using screenprint, a commercial printing technique, in bright, neon colors with strong outlines, Warhol has minimized the importance of the artist’s hand. His appropriation of iconic and painstakingly detailed paintings by the Old Masters in this way blurs the line between fine and commercial art and questions the idea of originality and reproduction, themes central to his work." – Chanler Rutherfurd
