If you can find out where these photos were shipped, you could figure out where the children are going. All of them were sold through Christies. What's going on at Christies?

Why would anyone want to hang these pictures on the wall. The one of brooke sheilds seems clearly to be child porn. The other's description seems to suggest trafficking seduction

In Untitled #96, perhaps the most ‘story-telling’ of the pictures, Sherman elaborated the scenario quite simply: “I was thinking of a young girl who may have been cleaning the kitchen for her mother and who ripped something out of the newspaper, something asking ‘Are you lonely?’ or ‘Do you want to be friends?’ or ‘Do you want to go on a vacation?’ She’s cleaning the floor, she rips this out and she’s thinking about it” (C. Sherman quoted in P. Schjeldahl, Cindy Sherman, exh. cat., Akron Art Museum, 1987, p. 11).”

The prices indicate that, as suggested before, the art world may be cover for laundering money or selling children.
