From Hard Radio news :
LARS ULRICH has won a 1982 painting by artist Jean Michel-Basquiat by bidding $14 million at an auction in New York City. Christie's says the price Ulrich bid for 'Untitled (Boxer)' exceeded the pre-auction estimate of more than $12 million. The painting shows a black heavyweight fighter with his arms thrust in the air against a white graffiti-filled background. The painting was the highlight of a 2005 traveling retrospective of the artist. Basquiat died in 1988 of a drug overdose at the age of 27. The current auction record for a Basquiat is $14.6 million for 'Untitled,' which sold at Sotheby's last year.
This is the painting:

OMG. Even if I had 100 million dollars I would never have bought that piece of crap!
But the manodepresive, media horn-dog, Dane Lars have always annoyed me when I read or hear him talk on TV. But I like his drum skills |
