Giacometti sculpture expected to sell for auction-record $130M

A rare life-size sculpture by Alberto Giacometti could set a record at auction next month where it's expected to bring around $130 million.

Christie's is offering "Pointing Man" in New York on May 11.

The record for a sculpture at auction is $104.3 million for Giacometti's "Walking Man I."

The 5-foot-high bronze sculpture of a spindly figure with his arms extended has been in the same private collection for 45 years.

Giacometti made six casts of the work. Four are in museum collections, including in London's Tate Gallery and New York's Museum of Modern Art.

The Swiss artist died in 1966.
