Jean-Michel Basquiat's Pablo Picasso

Although they never met, Pablo Picasso had a large influence on Jean-Michel Basquiat's work, with the latter citing the former's monumental Guernica as his favorite artwork as a child. Yet while Basquiat was open about seeking Picasso-level fame, he also knew Pablo's shortcomings, and he comes to grips with this dichotomy through his Untitled (Pablo Picasso). Measuring roughly 3' x 3', the metal panel artwork is made up of oil, acrylic, and oil stick, and features the face of a young Picasso juxtaposed with the trademark striped shirt of the older artist. His shirt is rendered a bold red and white, while blue forms both his hair and a storm cloud above. Text, a constant in most of Basquiat's work, also appears, with Picasso's name appearing multiple times, along with "FAMOUS" script hidden in the clouds and "PICASSO AT 15 YEARS / PICASSO AS A FIFTEEN YEAR OLD" partly obscured across his chest. A pure example of an artist reflecting on his relationship with another, the work will be auctioned by Christie's as part of their London Evening Sale on June 28.

Nike Alphafly 3 Road Racing Shoes

Running 26.2 miles is a lot different than tackling your local charity 5K. To accommodate the needs of marathon runners, Nike created the Alphafly line, now in its third generation. It employs two types of Zoom cushioning — a high-stack ZoomX foam midsole that encourages a smooth transition and Air Zoom units in the forefoot for an energy return boost. A wide, full-length carbon fiber Flyplate improves forward propulsion, and the breathable Atomknit 3.0 upper is paired with a lacing system designed with racer input to enhance comfort.

Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra Robot Vacuum + Mop

With the S8 MaxV Ultra, Roborock ensures every inch of your house is clean. The new model features a Flexi Arm Design with an extendable side brush that reaches into corners, while an Extra Edge Mopping System cleans along edges. A Reactive AI 2.0 Obstacle Recognition uses a 3D structured light and an RGB camera to identify and avoid obstacles in its path, and a PreciSense LiDAR navigation system scans rooms to create a map and determine the most efficient route. It upgrades suction power to 10,000Pa to pick up even more dust and dirt, a Carpet+ Boost System ups the hair pick-up rate by 30%, and the mopping system scrubs floors 4,000 times per second, detecting carpets and rugs along the way. With built-in voice assistance, users can start cleaning with a simple command, and when the job is done, the vacuum will retreat to its dock to automatically empty, wash, dry, and recharge itself. The S8 MaxV Ultra will be available April 22, 2024, and for a limited time, get a triple gift pack valued at $1,000 with your purchase.
