In June 2018 Phillips in London held the auction 20th Century & Contemporary Art Day Sale, which included the work Midnight Marauders by Gary Simmons. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 37,500.00 (€ 42,381.39), 34% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gary Simmons - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Bows and Bones, which sold at auction in December this year for GBP 114,300.00 (€ 131,669.22).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 34 % übertroffen
Im Juni 2018 führte Phillips in London die Auktion 20th Century & Contemporary Art Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Midnight Marauders von Gary Simmons zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 37.500,00 (€ 42.381,39) und damit 34% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Gary Simmons mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Bows and Bones beobachtet, die im Dezember diesen Jahres für GBP 114.300,00 (€ 131.669,22) versteigert wurde.
