Auction result well in line with expectations
In August 2018 Christies in New York held the auction Horizon | Post-War and Contemporary Art, which included the work Three Crows by Gary Simmons. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 5,250.00 (€ 4,527.42) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. 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).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im August 2018 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Horizon | Post-War and Contemporary Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Three Crows von Gary Simmons zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 5.250,00 (€ 4.527,42) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. 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).
