Upper estimate price exceeded by 52 %.
The work Ghoster #26 by Gary Simmons was sold in the Post-War to Present auction at Christies in New York in March 2020. It achieved a price of USD 10,625.00 (€ 9,633.69), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 52%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Gary Simmons achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Bows and Bones in December this year with an auction result of GBP 114,300.00 (€ 131,669.22).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 52 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Ghoster #26 von Gary Simmons wurde im März 2020 in der Auktion Post-War to Present bei Christies in New York versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 10.625,00 (€ 9.633,69) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 52%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Gary Simmons erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Bows and Bones im Dezember diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 114.300,00 (€ 131.669,22).
