jeffrey epstein leon black gagosian picasso sculpture 1234771752

Newly released documents from the Department of Justice reveal that the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein was deeply involved in facilitating major art transactions between mega-collector Leon Black and Gagosian gallery. The files detail Epstein's personal communications with Black's lawyers regarding the acquisition of Pablo Picasso's 1931 sculpture *Buste de Femme (Marie-Thérèse)*, a work that was the subject of a legal dispute before Black acquired it for over $115 million. Epstein also assisted in a complex $48 million swap of a Rothko painting for a Picasso through Gagosian in 2012.

'Reflection of resilience': Art Dubai's war-postponed edition opens to healthy sales

Art Dubai's 20th anniversary edition opened at Madinat Jumeirah after being postponed from April to May due to the US-Israel war in Iran and regional missile threats. Around 75 exhibitors dropped out, leaving roughly 50 participants, mostly from the region. The fair was reorganized in just eight weeks under executive director Benedetta Ghione and new director Dunja Gottweis, who created a new floor plan in a day and a half. The scaled-back format includes an embedded digital section, and initial sales have been strong, with works by Samira Badran, Mostafa Al Hallaj, Safeya Sharif, Alyazia Al Nahyan, Roudhah Al Mazrouei, and Nabil Anani selling at prices ranging from $3,500 to $360,000.

On June 7, Manila-based Léon Gallery Art and Antiquities held its Spectacular Mid-Year Auction, kicking off the gallery's 15th-anniversary celebrations. The sale featured modern and contemporary works by leading Filipino artists, including Fernando Zóbel, Juan Luna, and Vicente Manansala. A standout lot was Anita Magsaysay-Ho's *Water Carriers / Taga-igib* (1947), an egg tempera work that sold for over PHP 60 million (about $1.08 million). Another key highlight was Fernando Amorsolo's *The Burning of Manila* (1942), which set a record for the artist's wartime paintings at PHP 36.04 million ($645,460). The painting, from the collection of Don Enrique “EZ” Zóbel, had been on loan to the National Museum of Fine Arts, Manila, for about a decade before auction.
