Christie's is offering nine artworks from the collection of Anne and Sid Bass as part of its Spring Marquee Week in May. The works, which include pieces by Mark Rothko, Agnes Martin, Frank Stella, Ellsworth Kelly, Morris Louis, and Gino Severini, were displayed in the Bass House in Fort Worth, Texas—a Modernist residence designed by architect Paul Rudolph in the early 1970s. The house was built to serve both as a home and a gallery for the couple's renowned art collection.
