ART SALE- if you call this crap art. This is worth opening the link, there's 29 pieces that sold at auction, a tit-for-tat. Henry Macklowe's wife made him sell his pride and joy, his crowning achievement, the GE Building. He made her sell the art collection + he dumped the aged out Chinese battle axe for a much younger blonde. The article talks about how they disparaged each other for YEARS.
Save those memes boys. If THIS is art, you are Multi-Billionaires, the profits are unrealized to date. I'm talking MILLIONS for a piece that looks like a color sample you grab to see if that's the color you want to paint the walls. MILLIONS. Absurd money. Attaching pics of actual SOLD pieces. That went for MILLIONS. Anon will be ordering a paint by number set. Anybody can do this kind of "art". Anon can not make a meme, those are stolen by anon with reckless abandon.

"It was a divorce for the history books.
"The split of real-estate billionaire Harry Macklowe and his ex-wife Linda led to the richest night of art sales in Sotheby’s history on Monday, in a court-ordered auction to divide their assets.
When the final hammer came down, 35 lots of the embattled couple’s blue chip art, acquired over some 50 years, sold for $676 million.
But the Macklowes, who were married for 57 years, did not exactly celebrate in tandem. An insider told Page Six that Linda Macklowe (who is said to have had the real eye for art) was ensconced in a skybox at the auction, while Harry “worked the floor like a pro . . . He was having the time of his life.”
The source added: “The crazy part about this art sale is that it is only the first half of the collection. The rest comes up for sale in May.”
Though they made a beautiful collecting team, the Macklowes’ marriage was contentious. In her book “The Liar’s Ball: The Extraordinary Saga of How One Building Broke the World’s Toughest Tycoons,” journalist Vicky Ward wrote that they have been “heard to disparage each other and their marriage forcibly and publicly.”
"One of them, a mysterious Asian buyer, locked in Mark Rothko’s “No. 7” for a stunning$82.46 million— the auction’s highest sale."
