Photographs
With his invention of strobe photography in the early 1930s, MIT professor and electrical engineer Harold Eugene Edgerton revolutionized not just photography, but also military surveillance and moviemaking. His experiments with using strobes to freeze objects in motion so they could be captured on film resulted in remarkable images of birds in midflight, bullets slicing through apples and playing cards, falling milk drops, and athletes at work, like this striking photograph of golfer Denny Shute swinging a golf club.

Prints & Multiples
Known best for his iconic LOVE series, Robert Indiana was one of the leading Pop artists of his generation. The word "love" first appeared in his painting 4-Star Love (1961). Then, after experimenting with a series of rubbings in which he created compositions of stacked letters, the design evolved into canvas paintings of hard-edged color variants. The universality of the subject continues to resonate with audiences in and out of the art world. This 1967 screenprint titled SMALL LOVE WALL comes from an edition of 450.

Hollywood/Entertainment
When Bally unleashed KISS on arcades in 1979, it wasn't just a pinball machine. It was a rock 'n' roll spectacle. Created at the height of the band's pyrotechnic fame, Kevin O'Connor's artwork transformed Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Ace Frehley, and Peter Criss into larger-than-life icons of pinball's golden age. Few machines of the era matched its fusion of theatrical excess and cultural power, and these original production pieces capture that lightning in its purest form. This lot includes three key works from the machine's development process.
