Contemporary artist Cady Noland’s aluminum plate sculpture “Oozewald” fetched $6.6 million when it went on the block last November. But a separate Noland piece that Sotheby’s pulled from the same auction at Noland’s request could end up costing the artist and the auction house four times that much.

Stroock & Stroock & Lavan and Schnader Harrison Segal & Lewis recently entered appearances for Sotheby’s and Noland in a Manhattan state court suit brought by Marc Jancou Fine Art. The Manhattan art gallery sued Sotheby’s and Noland for a whopping $26 million in February, after Sotheby’s scrapped the auction of a silkscreen print on aluminum called “Cowboys Milking.” Noland had objected to the sale of the print because it had been damaged and restored.
