That's not very clear to me:

Moscow, Museum of Modern Art, The neon art of Alexander Ivanov, 19 February-20 March, 1999 (colour illustration in exhibition catalogue)

I understand we are talking about the Moscow Museum of Modern Art, but

The museum opened its doors on December 15, 1999 with the support of Moscow Government, Moscow Department of Culture and personally Moscow Mayor Yuri Luzhkov.

I am sure that this is a mistake, and this exhibition, if any, was not exactly held in MMSI.
Incidentally, in the CHA directory specified page, but here it is not.

I do not know what to write about Sotheby's.

Dear Querty.
I try to answer the question why to auction was withdrawn 36 Lot "Sunset in Kashmir" by Nicholas Roerich.
You happen to know?
Thank you.

Dear OlegTsi I'm not going to buy this lot, so it is not particularly considered, but usually this happens when the auction is able to convince the wrongness of a lot, or there is information that a lot is stolen.

Yes, of all the sales report at Bonhams - the most sensational result.
At the base the price of 30 thousand as a little hard to believe, though what just do not happen
