Upper estimate price exceeded by 60 %.
The work Locus: Plate 5 by Dorothea Rockburne was sold in the Prints & Multiples auction at Sothebys in New York in April 2018. The »bidding war« ended at USD 4,000.00 (€ 3,312.90), 60% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Dorothea Rockburne achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Black and White in November last year with an auction result of USD 119,700.00 (€ 115,954.66).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 60 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Locus: Plate 5 von Dorothea Rockburne wurde im April 2018 in der Auktion Prints & Multiples bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 4.000,00 (€ 3.312,90) und damit 60% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Dorothea Rockburne erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Black and White im November letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 119.700,00 (€ 115.954,66).
