Damien Hirst’s Pharmaceutical paintings are sometimes, as things turn out, remarkably attractive warning labels. In 1995, when the present lot was painted, the present-day household-name chemical BPA, short for Bisphenol A, was just another plastics additive, making its way without comment into nearly every canned or plastic-bottled product produced worldwide. In his ongoing effort to represent what he has described as “universal themes,” some have been uncovered in unlikely places, but perhaps none quite so humble and workaday as the kitchen cupboards and refrigerators of all our homes. When Nalgene®, a subsidiary of Thermo Fisher Scientifics, Inc., announced its ubiquitous polycarbonate water bottles would henceforth be free of BPA in the spring of 2008, it was front-page news; today nearly all high-end food-grade plastics manufacturers now prominently feature “PBA-Free” on their packaging and literature, and there are dozens of websites, blogs, and advocacy groups dedicated to informing consumers about the additive and its implications. Hirst’s Bisphenol A is a clear case for the artist’s argument that science is, in fact, an art.

Amid growing concern, Rep. John Dingell (D–Mich.) chairman of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, has launched an investigation into BPA, sending letters last month to the FDA and seven manufacturers of infant products sold in the U.S. requesting information on any BPA safety tests as well as specific levels in the baby goods. The companies that make Similac, Earth’s Best and Good Start have already responded, confirming that they coat the inside of their cans with BPA but that analyses did not detect it in the contents. They also emphasize that FDA has approved BPA for such use.

“Based on the studies reviewed by FDA, adverse effects occur in animals only at levels of BPA that are far higher orders of magnitude than those to which infants or adults are exposed,” says FDA spokeswoman Stephanie Kwisnek. “Therefore, FDA sees no reason to ban or otherwise restrict the uses now authorized at this time.” from D.

I decided against it [fictionalizing] because I felt it was more interesting and more uncomfortable for me to have to stand behind these paintings and my decision to paint them in the way that I chose to. I also started painting objects that would wash up from the world: things that would no longer have a clear function if they were broken, like a record player. What then does that object become?

Does it acquire another function? I usually want a starting point to make a painting. Whether it’s an invented framework, or a situation in the world.

D. Schutz, from an interview with M. Chin, Bomb, issue 95, Spring 2006 A painting of a sculpture, Chris’s Rubber Soul ably encapsulates Dana Schutz’s amalgamation of stylistic techniques, and provides a window onto her subject-selection process. The image has the artist recalling a period from her graduate work at Columbia University, as with another 2001 oil on canvas, Project at Kensington: a sculpture graveyard, where students put failed projects out to pasture. Schutz’s work has been compared to late-period Guston, and their shared qualities lie not just in bold, expressive brushwork but also with a tendency to anthropomorphize inanimate objects.

The crab-like shape perched atop an elongated record spindle in the present lot seems angled as if caught in mid-leap, a bounding prairie arthropod.

Robert: I was the least Pop of all the Pop artists. But Pop was also called New Realism. Tom Wesselmann, one of the Pop people, painted nudes of his wife. Now, is she a mass-produced image? In fact, I was mainly influenced by Ellsworth Kelly, who used hardedged forms and bold colors straight from the tube. Kelly and I were in a show together in Washington called Formalists. We both fit that bill, whereas you could hardly call [James] Rosenquist a formalist.

Then the Europeans decided we were all Vulgarians anyway. …

Steve: What about the postage stamps? My mother used those for years.

Robert: While a lot of other people’s mothers were busy needlepointing LOVE pillowcases. I got a thousand dollars from the Postal Service for three hundred and thirty million stamps. It was the most popular stamp ever issued, barring Christmas stamps.

Moments of perfection are indescribable but a few things can be said about them. At such times we are suddenly very happy and we wonder why life ever seemed troublesome. In an instant we can see the road ahead free from all difficulties and we think that we will never lose it again. All this and a great deal more in barely a moment, and then it is gone. ‌Perfection, of course, cannot be represented.

The slightest indication of it is eagerly grasped by observers. The work is so far from perfection because we ourselves are so far from perfection. The oftener we glimpse perfection or the more conscious we are in our awareness of it the farther away it seems to be. Or perhaps I should say the more we are aware of perfection the more we realize how very far away from us it is. That is why art work is so very hard. It is a working through disappointments and a growing recognition of failure to the point of defeat. But one still wakes in the morning, and there is the inspiration and one goes on. from D. Schwarz, ed., Agnes Martin: Writings—Schriften, Ostfildern-Ruit, 1991, pp 68-69

It is probably Cézanne’s intensely thoughtful and painfully hesitant painting that most closely corresponds to Richter’s reflectiveness, the kind that appears spontaneous but which actually has been executed with extreme precision and which has kept his Abstrake Bilder free from any kind of compulsiveness. Even when traces of Romanticism resonate in them or when emotions seem to emerge and the abstract forms seem to fill the painting’s ground with a Baroque dynamic, these have been carefully calculated. Their complex structures emerge from a variety of precisely thought-out work processes that guide random elements in the painting and counteract the influence of the unconscious. They aim at a coherent network of composed associations, and coincidences, of both clear and inexplicable elements in order to finally reach a state Richter has described as ‘planned spontaneity.’ His work is both carefully thought through and carefully painted. He applies layer upon layer of paint and then if necessary, he removes it or scrapes it back down to the canvas in order to start again. The surface structures produced by this vary greatly and show how the painter attempts to get to the very heart of painting and how he materializes his confrontation with the forms of paint on the canvas. The creation of these pictures involves a fundamental tension in deciding where the palette knife should apply paint and where it should remove it. Unexpected developments, which either cover over figurative elements in the picture or suggest object in the repertoire of abstract forms, serve to produce paintings that benefit as much from unplanned incidents as from a strict visual logic that sets about eradicating chance events. from “On the Desire to Paint Something Beautiful,” G. Adriani, ed., Gerhard Richter: Paintings from Private Collections, Ostfildern, 2008, p. 29

There is this general image that one has of Surrealism’s big spaces and little figures, of the funny dream stuff, impossible things doing impossible things. I like that because for me that is just the kind of crazy bullshit that is food for artists. On the other hand I see Surrealism as the first artistic movement, or group of artists, that really intensely thought about method. That is the main thing. So when I talk about Surrealism, I am more interested in Dali than Max Ernst. I see him as the strongest person there, but all the others…the little soldiers…they also did interesting things. Thinking about method and the other aspects they became involved in, I see these as the road to a lot of things that came afterwards. Not Sean Scully, but I could make a connection to Jeff Koons, or to Conceptual Art. A lot of the political stuff could be seen as sharing some thinking with the Surrealists. I definitely see myself as linked to them—my thinking comes from there, although it looks very different.

Traditional forms of pictorial design are abandoned in favor of personal order. …The picture breaks with its own tradition, taking the lie that is perspective back into the two-dimensional reality of the support. The strips of color are thus not caught up in the illusion…but become decoration reminiscent of a neo-hippie disco era aesthetic. The figuration tips over into abstraction and back again. from J.H. Wentrup, “Tal R: The Lord of Waste,” Flash Art, July – September 2003, p. 81

GUIDE FOR PROSPECTIVE BUYERS Buying at Auction The following pages are designed to offer you information on how to buy at auction at Phillips de Pury & Company. Our staff will be happy to assist you.

Conditions of Sale The Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty which appear later in this catalogue govern the auction. Bidders are strongly encouraged to read them as they outline the legal relationship among Phillips, the seller and the buyer and describe the terms upon which property is bought at auction. Please be advised that Phillips de Pury & Company generally acts as agent for the seller.

Buyer’s Premium Phillips de Pury & Company charges the successful bidder a commission, or buyer’s premium, on the hammer price of each lot sold.The buyer’s premium is payable by the buyer as part of the total purchase price at the following rates: 25% of the hammer price up to and including $50,000, 20% of the portion of the hammer price above $50,000 up to and including $1,000,000 and 12% of the portion of the hammer price above $1,000,000.

Symbol Key The following key explains the symbols you may see inside this catalogue.

O Guaranteed Property The seller of lots with this symbol has been guaranteed a minimum price.The guarantee may be provided by Phillips de Pury & Company, by a third party or jointly by us and a third party. Phillips de Pury & Company and third parties providing or participating in a guarantee may benefit financially if a guaranteed lot is sold successfully and may incur a loss if the sale is not successful. Δ Property in Which Phillips de Pury & Company Has an Ownership Interest Lots with this symbol indicate that Phillips de Pury & Company owns the lot in whole or in part or has an economic interest in the lot equivalent to an ownership interest.

•

No Reserve Unless indicated by a , all lots in this catalogue are offered subject to a reserve.

A reserve is the confidential value established between Phillips de Pury & Company and the seller and below which a lot may not be sold.The reserve for each lot is generally set at a percentage of the low estimate and will not exceed the low presale estimate.

•

1 Prior to Auction 2 Bidding in the Sale Catalogue Subscriptions If you would like to purchase a catalogue for this auction or any other Phillips de Pury & Company sale, please contact us at +1 212 940 1240 or +44 20 7318 4010.

Pre-Sale Estimates Pre-Sale estimates are intended as a guide for prospective buyers. Any bid within the high and low estimate range should, in our opinion, offer a chance of success.

However, many lots achieve prices below or above the pre-sale estimates. Where “Estimate on Request” appears, please contact the specialist department for further information. It is advisable to contact us closer to the time of the auction as estimates can be subject to revision. Pre-sale estimates do not include the buyer’s premium or any applicable taxes.

Pre-Sale Estimates in Pounds Sterling and Euros Although the sale is conducted in US dollars, the pre-sale estimates in the auction catalogues may also be printed in pounds sterling and/or euros. Since the exchange rate is that at the time of catalogue production and not at the date of auction, you should treat estimates in pounds sterling or euros as a guide only.

Catalogue Entries Phillips may print in the catalogue entry the history of ownership of a work of art, as well as the exhibition history of the property and references to the work in art publications. While we are careful in the cataloguing process, provenance, exhibition and literature references may not be exhaustive and in some cases we may intentionally refrain from disclosing the identity of previous owners. Please note that all dimensions of the property set forth in the catalogue entry are approximate.

Condition of Lots Our catalogues include references to condition only in the descriptions of multiple works (e.g., prints). Such references, though, do not amount to a full description of condition.The absence of reference to the condition of a lot in the catalogue entry does not imply that the lot is free from faults or imperfections. Solely as a convenience to clients, Phillips de Pury & Company may provide condition reports.

In preparing such reports, our specialists assess the condition in a manner appropriate to the estimated value of the property and the nature of the auction in which it is included. While condition reports are prepared honestly and carefully, our staff are not professional restorers or trained conservators. We therefore encourage all prospective buyers to inspect the property at the pre-sale exhibitions and recommend, particularly in the case of any lot of significant value, that you retain your own restorer or professional advisor to report to you on the property’s condition prior to bidding. Any prospective buyer of photographs or prints should always request a condition report because all such property is sold unframed, unless otherwise indicated in the condition report. If a lot is sold framed, Phillips de Pury & Company accepts no liability for the condition of the frame. If we sell any lot unframed, we will be pleased to refer the purchaser to a professional framer.

Pre-Auction Viewing Pre-auction viewings are open to the public and free of charge. Our specialists are available to give advice and condition reports at viewings or by appointment.

Electrical and Mechanical Lots All lots with electrical and/or mechanical features are sold on the basis of their decorative value only and should not be assumed to be operative. It is essential that, prior to any intended use, the electrical system is verified and approved by a qualified electrician.

Bidding at Auction Bids may be executed during the auction in person by paddle or by telephone or prior to the sale in writing by absentee bid.

Bidding in Person To bid in person, you will need to register for and collect a paddle before the auction begins. Proof of identity in the form of government issued identification will be required, as will an original signature. We may also require that you furnish us with a bank reference. New clients are encouraged to register at least 48 hours in advance of a sale to allow sufficient time for us to process your information. All lots sold will be invoiced to the name and address to which the paddle has been registered and invoices cannot be transferred to other names and addresses. Please do not misplace your paddle. In the event you lose it, inform a Phillips de Pury & Company staff member immediately. At the end of the auction, please return your paddle to the registration desk.

Bidding by Telephone If you cannot attend the auction, you may bid live on the telephone with one of our multi-lingual staff members.This service must be arranged at least 24 hours in advance of the sale and is available for lots whose low pre-sale estimate is at least $1000.Telephone bids may be recorded. By bidding on the telephone, you consent to the recording of your conversation. We suggest that you leave a maximum bid, excluding the buyer’s premium and any applicable taxes, which we can execute on your behalf in the event we are unable to reach you by telephone.

CONDITIONS OF SALE The Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty set forth below govern the relationship between bidders and buyers, on the one hand, and Phillips de Pury & Company and sellers, on the other hand. All prospective buyers should read these Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty carefully before bidding.

1 Introduction Each lot in this catalogue is offered for sale and sold subject to: (a) the Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty; (b) additional notices and terms printed in other places in this catalogue, including the Guide for Prospective Buyers, and (c) supplements to this catalogue or other written material posted by Phillips de Pury & Company in the saleroom, in each case as amended by any addendum or announcement by the auctioneer prior to the auction By bidding at the auction, whether in person, through an agent, by written bid, by telephone bid or other means, bidders and buyers agree to be bound by these Conditions of Sale, as so changed or supplemented, and Authorship Warranty.

These Conditions of Sale, as so changed or supplemented, and Authorship Warranty contain all the terms on which Phillips de Pury & Company and the seller contract with the buyer.

2 Phillips de Pury & Company as Agent Phillips de Pury & Company acts as an agent for the seller, unless otherwise indicated in this catalogue or at the time of auction. On occasion, Phillips de Pury & Company may own a lot, in which case we will act in a principal capacity as a consignor, or may have a legal, beneficial or financial interest in a lot as a secured creditor or otherwise.

3 Catalogue Descriptions and Condition of Property Lots are sold subject to the Authorship Warranty, as described in the catalogue (unless such description is changed or supplemented, as provided in Paragraph 1 above) and in the condition that they are in at the time of the sale on the following basis. (a)The knowledge of Phillips de Pury & Company in relation to each lot is partially dependent on information provided to us by the seller, and Phillips de Pury & Company is not able to and does not carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot.

Prospective buyers acknowledge this fact and accept responsibility for carrying out inspections and investigations to satisfy themselves as to the lots in which they may be interested. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we shall exercise such reasonable care when making express statements in catalogue descriptions or condition reports as is consistent with our role as auctioneer of lots in this sale and in light of (i) the information provided to us by the seller, (ii) scholarship and technical knowledge and (iii) the generally accepted opinions of relevant experts, in each case at the time any such express statement is made. (b) Each lot offered for sale at Phillips de Pury & Company is available for inspection by prospective buyers prior to the auction. Phillips de Pury & Company accepts bids on lots on the basis that bidders (and independent experts on their behalf, to the extent appropriate given the nature and value of the lot and the bidder’s own expertise) have fully inspected the lot prior to bidding and have satisfied themselves as to both the condition of the lot and the accuracy of its description. . (c) Prospective buyers acknowledge that many lots are of an age and type which means that they are not in perfect condition. As a courtesy to clients, Phillips de Pury & Company may prepare and provide condition reports to assist prospective buyers when they are inspecting lots. Catalogue descriptions and condition reports may make reference to particular imperfections of a lot, but bidders should note that lots may have other faults not expressly referred to in the catalogue or condition report. All dimensions are approximate. Illustrations are for identification purposes only and cannot be used as precise indications of size or to convey full information as to the actual condition of lots. (d) Information provided to prospective buyers in respect of any lot, including any pre-sale estimate, whether written or oral, and information in any catalogue, condition or other report, commentary or valuation, is not a representation of fact but rather a statement of opinion held by Phillips de Pury & Company. Any pre-sale estimate may not be relied on as a prediction of the selling price or value of the lot and may be revised from time to time by Phillips de Pury & Company in our absolute discretion. Neither Phillips de Pury & Company nor any of our affiliated companies shall be liable for any difference between the pre-sale estimates for any lot and the actual price achieved at auction or upon resale.

4 Bidding at Auction (a) Phillips de Pury & Company has absolute discretion to refuse admission to the auction or participation in the sale. All bidders must register for a paddle prior to bidding, supplying such information and references as required by Phillips de Pury & Company. (b) As a convenience to bidders who cannot attend the auction in person, Phillips de Pury & Company may, if so instructed by the bidder, execute written absentee bids on a bidder’s behalf. Absentee bidders are required to submit bids on the “Absentee Bid Form,” a copy of which is printed in this catalogue or otherwise available from

Phillips de Pury & Company. Bids must be placed in the currency of the sale.The bidder must clearly indicate the maximum amount he or she intends to bid, excluding the buyer’s premium and any applicable sales or use taxes.The auctioneer will not accept an instruction to execute an absentee bid which does not indicate such maximum bid. Our staff will attempt to execute an absentee bid at the lowest possible price taking into account the reserve and other bidders. Any absentee bid must be received at least 24 hours in advance of the sale. In the event of identical bids, the earliest bid received will take precedence. (c)Telephone bidders are required to submit bids on the “Telephone Bid Form,” a copy of which is printed in this catalogue or otherwise available from Phillips de Pury & Company.Telephone bidding is available for lots whose low pre-sale estimate is at least $1000. Phillips de Pury & Company reserves the right to require written confirmation of a successful bid from a telephone bidder by fax or otherwise immediately after such bid is accepted by the auctioneer.Telephone bids may be recorded and, by bidding on the telephone, a bidder consents to the recording of the conversation. (d) When making a bid, whether in person, by absentee bid or on the telephone, a bidder accepts personal liability to pay the purchase price, as described more fully in Paragraph 6 (a) below, plus all other applicable charges unless it has been explicitly agreed in writing with Phillips de Pury & Company before the commencement of the auction that the bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party acceptable to Phillips de Pury & Company and that we will only look to the principal for such payment. (e) Arranging absentee and telephone bids is a free service provided by Phillips de Pury & Company to prospective buyers. While we undertake to exercise reasonable care in undertaking such activity, we cannot accept liability for failure to execute such bids except where such failure is caused by our willful misconduct. (f) Employees of Phillips de Pury & Company and our affiliated companies, including the auctioneer, may bid at the auction by placing absentee bids so long as they do not know the reserve when submitting their absentee bids and otherwise comply with our employee bidding procedures.

(d)The sale will be conducted in US dollars and payment is due in US dollars. For the benefit of international clients, pre-sale estimates in the auction catalogue may be shown in pounds sterling and/or euros and, if so, will reflect approximate exchange rates. Accordingly, estimates in pounds sterling or euros should be treated only as a guide. (e) Subject to the auctioneer’s reasonable discretion, the highest bidder accepted by the auctioneer will be the buyer and the striking of the hammer marks the acceptance of the highest bid and the conclusion of a contract for sale between the seller and the buyer.

We may apply such money or deal with such property as the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law permits a secured creditor to do. In the event that we exercise a lien over property in our possession because the buyer is in default to one of our affiliated companies, we will so notify the buyer. Our security interest in any individual lot will terminate upon actual delivery of the lot to the buyer or the buyer’s agent. (c) In the event the buyer is in default of payment to any of our affiliated companies, the buyer also irrevocably authorizes Phillips de Pury & Company to pledge the buyer’s property in our possession by actual or constructive delivery to our affiliated company as security for the payment of any outstanding amount due.

10 Rescission by Phillips de Pury & Company Phillips de Pury & Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to rescind a sale without notice to the buyer if we reasonably believe that there is a material breach of the seller’s representations and warranties or the Authorship Warranty or an adverse claim is made by a third party. Upon notice of Phillips de Pury & Company’s election to rescind the sale, the buyer will promptly return the lot to Phillips de Pury & Company, and we will then refund the Purchase Price paid to us.

As described more fully in Paragraph 13 below, the refund shall constitute the sole remedy and recourse of the buyer against Phillips de Pury & Company and the seller with respect to such rescinded sale..

11 Export, Import and Endangered Species Licenses and Permits Before bidding for any property, prospective buyers are advised to make their own inquiries as to whether a license is required to export a lot from the United States or to import it into another country. Prospective buyers are advised that some countries prohibit the import of property made of or incorporating plant or animal material, such as coral, crocodile, ivory, whalebone, rhinoceros horn or tortoiseshell, irrespective of age, percentage or value. Accordingly, prior to bidding, prospective buyers considering export of purchased lots should familiarize themselves with relevant export and import regulations of the countries concerned. It is solely the buyer’s responsibility to comply with these laws and to obtain any necessary export, import and endangered species licenses or permits. Failure to obtain a license or permit or delay in so doing will not justify the cancellation of the sale or any delay in making full payment for the lot.

12 Client Information In connection with the management and operation of our business and the marketing and supply of auction related services, or as required by law, we may ask clients to provide personal information about themselves or obtain information about clients from third parties (e.g., credit information). If clients provide us with information that is defined by law as "sensitive," they agree that Phillips de Pury & Company and our affiliated companies may use it for the above purposes. Phillips de Pury & Company and our affiliated companies will not use or process sensitive information for any other purpose without the client's express consent. If you would
