The first of its kind relay-style livestreamed auction, "ONE: a Global Sale of the 20th Century," will be hosted live time at Christie's salesrooms across four of the art world's major hubs -- Paris, Hong Kong, London and New York City -- on Friday. The auction offers impressionist and modern, post-war and contemporary art and design.
