5. Green White (1968) by Ellsworth Kelly priced at $3.5 Million
In absolutely no particular order we’ve got Green White by Ellsworth Kelly, a piece of artwork worth $3.5 million.
Ellsworth Kelly is among the few living artists whose artworks have managed to sell for millions.
His style was often described more European than New York art connoisseurs desired, because he used to go against the trends that were dominant in his time.
In the fall of 1957, he has found an appreciative audience at Betty Parson’s Gallery, and since then a series of recognitions for the artist followed.
By that time, his painting Green White (1961) had sold for $1.6 million in 2008, while the triangular Green White (1968) had sold for $3.5 million in 2011.
