MICA ERTEGÜN AUCTION NEARS ITS END
As Christie’s prepares to conclude the Mica Ertegün auction series that began in November, we embark on a journey into Ertegün’s world through the favorite pieces of Enis Karavil.
One of the brightest stars in New York’s cultural, artistic, and social ecosystem, Mica Ertegün. With her unique design perspective she gained from her multinational roots and cosmopolitan upbringing, she became an interior designer who crafted homes for luminaries like David Rockefeller and Hubert de Givenchy. She was also a passionate collector. The 97-year-old Ertegün who passed away last year, is now being honored through an auction series that started in November with her art collection and continued with pieces from her homes in various countries. As the final days approach and the hammer is set to fall, we delve into the universe of Mica Ertegün alongside fellow collector Enis Karavil, exploring his curated selections.
“I think it is important to give credit to others. No one is a genius on her own.”
