tumbleweedt Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Very interesting peek back in time! I guess in two of the four pictures of Lot #214 it's Martin with Lisa Bohart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJM Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Madonna and Martin Burgoyne Color SX 70 Polaroid Photograph. One-of-a-kind Polaroid photo from the early 1980s. Photo could possibly have been taken by either Andy Warhol or artist Maripol. The Polaroid is the only photograph in existence. It is a one-of-a-kind image taken without a negative. The photograph has not been printed or ever published before and was taken in the early 1980s when Madonna and Martin were roommates sharing an apartment on the Lower East Side of New York together. Both Madonna and Martin are wearing wigs most likely at a Halloween party. Image size 3" x 3". In good condition. Dry mounted and matted in a modern 12" x 12" metal frame. Estate of Martin Burgoyne. omfg amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rb19 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Am I the only one who thinks it's a bit tacky they're selling all these things without talking to M first? I mean I know they're hardly the first people in the world to cash in from a connection with her but she and Martin were really close it just seems a little disrespectful to him if nothing else.

I mean I know they're hardly the first people in the world to cash in from a connection with her but she and Martin were really close They aren't her things. She's had 30 years to reach out to them and If she wants something that bad she can certainly afford to bid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have spoken. She may not want the items as she already has enough items from the time. She may want them to have the money. She may bid on some items. I can't see the items anymore. I'd love to see them as I love the early stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb19 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 True true it was just the bit where it said "we hope she sees and maybe bids on some of it" that made it sound like that. Maybe I'm just being oversensitive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MerGirl Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I know that Amen Madonna tweeted Guy Oseary and Debi Mazar a link about the auction. Maybe they'll see it and tell Madonna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I know they're hardly the first people in the world to cash in from a connection with her but she and Martin were really close it just seems a little disrespectful to him if nothing else. Martin's parents are 80 now and their son died almost 30 years ago, I doubt they need those objects to remember their son. And I seriously doubt they're doing this for some money. As much as I doubt Madonna is upset at all about this, whether they spoke or not, bidding or no bidding If anything, the fact that these items are getting auctioned and the publicity that it's getting are a nice reminder to everyone where it all started for Madonna and the amazing group of people she was part of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
