Benoît van Innis: That Evening They Had Decided Not to Talk About Contemporary Art

Earlier today in Bruges, an auction lot consisting principally of items by Benoît van Innis reflected the somewhat haphazard way collectors accumulate the work of illustrators they admire. The sale by Auctions Van de Wiele of Bruges included two signed and numbered prints, two books, a folder, and two New Yorker magazine covers, one by van Innis and the other of a cat by Gürbüz Doğan Ekşioğlu.
