In November 2006 Phillips in New York held the auction Contemporary Art Part I, which included the work Untitled (Scoreboard) by Banks Violette. The »bidding war« ended at USD 117,600.00 (€ 88,681.09), 68% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Banks Violette - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work burnout (fadeaway), vol.1, which sold at auction in June 2008 for GBP 205,250.00 (€ 259,442.88).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 68 % übertroffen
Im November 2006 führte Phillips in New York die Auktion Contemporary Art Part I durch, in der auch die Arbeit Untitled (Scoreboard) von Banks Violette zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 117.600,00 (€ 88.681,09) und damit 68% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Banks Violette mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit burnout (fadeaway), vol.1 beobachtet, die im Juni 2008 für GBP 205.250,00 (€ 259.442,88) versteigert wurde.
