Warhol’s ‘Marilyn,’ at $195 Million, Shatters Auction Record for an American Artist – The New York Times

The first lot, a work by the American conceptual artist Mike Bidlo, “Not Picasso (Bather with Beachball),” estimated at $60,000 to $80,000, went for $1.3 million with fees. The collector Peter Brant, seated in the third row, bought the third lot, Francesco Clemente’s “Fourteen Stations, No. XI,” for $1.9 million, over an estimate of $80,000 to $120,000.

Jha, MD, MPH (@AshishKJha46) May 8, 2022 The picture is the same nationally. Between April 1 and April 27, cases in the U.S. roughly doubled. Deaths fell by half over the same period. There’s been hardly any increase in...

Bucatini all’Amatriciana Recipe

A Classic Roman Dish - Bucatini all'Amatriciana Like many of you, Meg and I watched the Stanley Tucci special on CNN called Searching for Italy. In the Rome episode, he has lunch at Armando Al Pantheon to enjoy their famous rigatoni all'amatriciana, one of Rome's famous pastas. I made it a little different and call it bucatini all'Amatriciana. Of course I had to run out and buy the ingredients so we could make it at home.
