ole faarup collection christies sale doig ofili
Christie’s will host a single-owner sale of the contemporary art collection of Danish businessman Ole Faarup in October, featuring works by Peter Doig, Chris Ofili, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and others. The sale, estimated at up to £22 million, is anchored by two major Doig paintings—Country Rock (1998–99) and Ski Jacket (1994)—and Ofili’s Blossom (1997). Proceeds will fund the newly formed Ole Faarup Art Foundation, which aims to promote Danish art internationally and bring international works to Danish museums.
