World’s Top Five Most Expensive Sculptures

February 12, 2010

By Dave Klemencic and Jeremy Harris Paintings are often highly sought after due to their broad appeal and identifiability.

World’s Most Expensive Wig

January 20, 2010

Iconic pop artist Andy Warhol strove for a unique and trendsetting look—even going so far as to commission mismatched footwear with patches sewn onto the right shoe.

November 10, 2009
