From Shelley Esaak, About.com

Christie's May 16, 2007 Post-War and Contemporary Art Evening Sale in New York City is notable for its selection of Abstract Expressionism, Minimalism, Pop and Contemporary Art. The 78 lots at auction include important works by Willem de Kooning, Mark Rothko, Donald Judd, Eva Hesse, Jasper Johns, Philip Guston, Damian Hirst and Lisa Yuskavage, as well as an a group of ten pieces by Andy Warhol. The Warhols are of special interest, as pre-sale estimates indicate new benchmarks will be set for the artist's work.

For your viewing enjoyment, here are images of four headlining lots from this newsworthy Sale.
