In July last year Christies in New York held the auction First Open | Post-War & Contemporary Art, which included the work The Start of Something New by Hernan Bas. The »bidding war« ended at USD 126,000.00 (€ 123,505.20), 58% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hernan Bas achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Bats and the Barn Bridge in November last year with an auction result of HKD 11,250,000.00 (€ 1,396,033.13).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 58 % übertroffen
Im Juli letzten Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion First Open | Post-War & Contemporary Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Start of Something New von Hernan Bas zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 126.000,00 (€ 123.505,20) und damit 58% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hernan Bas erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Bats and the Barn Bridge im November letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 11.250.000,00 (€ 1.396.033,13).
