"The new level of global access to Andy Warhol's work that this series of sales makes possible, along with the bolstering of our philanthropic base, makes this an important moment for the Foundation and indeed for the world of art," said Joel Wachs, President of The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. Michael Straus, the foundation's Chairman of the Board, welcomed the results of the first auction. "It has allowed us to increase our grant-making capacity at a time when the arts community needs support and has engaged an ever-expanding audience with the art of Andy Warhol," Straus said.
