This artwork by David Hammons achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in November 2017. In the Post-War & Contemporary Art Afternoon Session auction, the work Untitled (Kool Aid Drawing) sold for USD 336,500.00 (€ 282,820.64) - well above the upper estimate of USD 150,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by David Hammons achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work without title in November 2013 with an auction result of USD 8,005,000.00 (€ 5,883,433.78).

Dieses Kunstwerk von David Hammons erzielte im November 2017 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art Afternoon Session wurde die Arbeit Untitled (Kool Aid Drawing) für USD 336.500,00 (€ 282.820,64) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 150.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von David Hammons erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ohne Titel im November 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 8.005.000,00 (€ 5.883.433,78).
