Recently Russell Young set an action Record for the Original painting Easy Rider, from the film with Jack Nicholson, Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper. A bit of trivia: Did you know Phil Spector was in Easy Rider? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064276/
NEW YORK (Reuters) - A Russell Young painting, "Easy Rider", sold for $27,500 at Phillips de Pury & Company's Contemporary Art auction. This was a record for the artist and above its mid-range estimate during a world economic crisis.

THE HISTORY OF VIOLENCE, an extensive series that will debut in a Manhattan Museum, five galleries and on the streets of New York.
