New York Auction Results: The Fall of Brazilian Historical Lots – November 2025
The Fall 2025 auction season in New York delivered a strong and self-assured performance for the global Post-War and Contemporary market. Across the major houses, robust totals reaffirmed the sector’s resilience and highlighted major shifts in capital flows.
Sotheby’s emerged as the clear leader, surpassing $1.1B in total sales for the season, driven by two major engines: the landmark sale Leonard A. Lauder, Collector (over $530M) and The Now & Contemporary Evening Auction, which alone achieved $178.5M. Christie’s followed closely, reaching approximately $964.5M during its marquee week, marked by $471.7M from the 20th Century Evening Sale and $218M generated by the Collection of Robert E. and Patricia G. Ross Weis.

In the heart of Paris, a new chapter unfolds. Finalized in 1925, the same year as the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs, the Villa La Roche, Le Corbusier’s iconic architectural statement, stands as a bold counterpoint to the ornamental trends of its time. Nearly a century later, this modernist landmark becomes the stage for a vibrant encounter: Brazilian art steps into its clean lines and luminous spaces, revealing unexpected dialogues between two nations bound by creative tensions and shared aspirations.
