Gavin Turk's "Brillo 5" (2003) is a bronze sculpture painted to look like a cardboard box. The work, which is less than 2 feet tall, goes on sale Sept. 23 at Christie's in New York as part of a postwar and contemporary art auction. The work is estimated at $20,000 to $30,000. The auction will also feature work by Jean-Michel Basquiat, Gerhard Richter, John Baldessari, Sol LeWitt, Andy Warhol and other contemporary luminaries.
