Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Dan Flavin could be acquired at Christies in New York in July last year for an unexpectedly low price. In the Contemporary Edition auction, the work for one walled circular fluorescent light (to Heiner Friedrich) changed hands for USD 2,772.00 (€ 2,717.11) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Dan Flavin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Alternate Diagonals Of March 2, 1964 (To Don Judd) in May 2014 with an auction result of USD 3,077,000.00 (€ 2,255,865.10).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Dan Flavin konnte im Juli letzten Jahres bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Contemporary Edition wechselte die Arbeit for one walled circular fluorescent light (to Heiner Friedrich) für USD 2.772,00 (€ 2.717,11) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Dan Flavin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Alternate Diagonals Of March 2, 1964 (To Don Judd) im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 3.077.000,00 (€ 2.255.865,10).
