Creative art by United States-based Georgian artist Levan Songulashvili will feature alongside famous names of art in an upcoming auction in New York that will benefit the city's Academy of Arts.
Songulashvili's 2012 artwork The Nun was selected to be displayed at Sotheby's Auction venue on October 24 by organisers of the 2016 Take Home a Nude event, which will bring together art enthusiasts and creators from all over the world.
This year's Take Home a Nude auction will be the 25th edition of the annual event and will honour American art collector and film producer Jane Holzer.
