Sotheby’s Private Auction of Arne Glimcher’s Jackson Pollock Appears to Fail

Sotheby’s Private Auction of Arne Glimcher’s Jackson Pollock Appears to Fail

Published by Jenni Sidey

For much of Tuesday, June 2,, the second floor of Sotheby’s headquarters at Manhattan’s Breuer Building was off limits. Security guards turned away employees hoping to access the floor, which, when not used as a traditional gallery, is where the auction house stages its biggest and most closely watched auctions—including the $236 million Gustav Klimt painting that last year broke the record for any work of modern art sold at auction. According to sources familiar with the matter, even senior staff were left wondering what exactly was going on upstairs. Related Articles The answer, it turns out, was a Jackson Pollock. According to multiple sources, Sotheby’s had quietly organized a private auction for Number 19, 1951, a monumental Pollock owned by Pace Gallery founder Arne Glimcher. Measuring nearly five feet tall and four feet wide, the muscular oil-and-enamel work is filled with thick ropes of black paint coiling around each other before colliding into bold abstractions. The asking price, I’m told, was $50 million. The sale was conducted with an unusual degree of secrecy. Oliver Barker, …

John McClain dead: Co-executor of Michael Jackson estate was 71

John McClain dead: Co-executor of Michael Jackson estate was 71

Published by Sam Flores

John McClain, a musician and record executive who helped power Janet Jackson’s ascent to pop stardom before serving as a co-executor of the estate of Jackson’s brother Michael, died Tuesday in Los Angeles. He was 71. His death was confirmed by Diana Baron, a representative of the estate, who said McClain died from complications of a fall. “I am profoundly grieved at the loss of my partner and brother,” said attorney John Branca, co-executor of the Michael Jackson estate with McClain. In a statement, he described McClain as “one of the great innovators in the world of music and music marketing” and said “it is difficult to imagine a world without him.” Named to their posts in Michael Jackson’s will, McClain and Branca steered Jackson’s estate from financial and reputational ruin at the time of the pop star’s death in 2009 — much of it due to the multiple allegations of child sexual abuse against the singer — to the enormous success of posthumous projects including the concert film “This Is It,” the Cirque du …

John McClain, the music executive who served as co-executor of Michael Jackson‘s estate for over a decade, has died. He was 71. McClain died Tuesday following complications from a fall, representatives for the executive said, adding that he was “surrounded by loving friends and his nephew Warner Wright.” A Los Angeles native, McClain worked closely with the Jackson family since the 1980s, after getting his start in the business as a music director and session musician, with credits on records for the likes of Gladys Knight, Diana Ross and Lionel Richie. McClain grew up around music; his father opened the It Club, which hosted jazz legends like Miles Davis and John Coltrane, while his mother was a pianist. After he was appointed director of Black music at A&M Records, he played a key role in developing Janet Jackson into a superstar, bringing her together with production duo Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, leading to the creation of the albums Control and Rhythm Nation. He joined Interscope in the label’s early days, playing a major role …

The sites refer to 45-year-old former Apple Music creative director as “Larry Scammson,” and to media company Gamma as “Scamma,” portraying Jackson as a charlatan and his technology company as a “fraudulent enterprise,” the complaint continues. They allege that Jackson and Gamma artificially inflated sales figures for West’s comeback album, Bully, through …
