citizen kane rosebud sled auction 2657602

Heritage Auctions sold one of the last surviving Rosebud sleds from the 1941 film *Citizen Kane* for $14.75 million on July 16. The prop, made of pine hardwood with a red seat stenciled with “ROSEBUD,” came from the collection of director Joe Dante, who received it in 1984 from a crew member clearing out an old RKO Pictures lot. The sled was radiocarbon-dated to verify its authenticity. The sale makes it the most expensive Rosebud sled ever sold at auction and the second most valuable piece of movie memorabilia, after the ruby slippers from *The Wizard of Oz*.

Exhibition | Jorge Molder, 'Lusco-fusco' at Galerie Bernard Bouche, Paris, France

Galerie Bernard Bouche in Paris is presenting 'Lusco-fusco', a new exhibition by Portuguese photographer Jorge Molder, opening March 28. The show features two interrelated photographic series, 'Dorothy' (black and white) and 'Cesare' (color), which extract and rework still images from Robert Wiene's 'The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari' (1920) and Victor Fleming's 'The Wizard of Oz' (1939). Molder halts the cinematic narrative to explore stillness, ambiguity, and the motifs of masks, dreams, and multiple identities through self-portraiture.

From DJing club nights to gallery walls, Scots artist returns home for major show

Francis Dosoo, a self-taught Scottish artist now based in Vienna, is mounting his first solo show at Dundee Contemporary Arts (DCA) titled "Portrait Of Dorothy Gale." Dosoo began his career in nightlife, running club nights and DJ sets that blended into performance and installation art. His practice spans sound, film, and visual art, with past collaborations including Joanne Dawson, Aniela Piasecka, and Alberta Whittle, and commissions from the Glasgow Film Festival and Edinburgh Art Festival. The DCA exhibition draws on the 1978 film *The Wiz*, reimagining *The Wizard of Oz* with an African-American cast, focusing on star Diana Ross's career and personal life at the time.
