Auction result well in line with expectations
The work African Dance by Houston Maludi was sold in the Modern and Contemporary African Art auction at Sothebys in London in March 2021. It changed hands for a price of GBP 4,788.00 (€ 5,624.67) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Houston Maludi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Non Localité, 2019, which sold at auction in June 2021 for EUR 14,950.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit African Dance von Houston Maludi wurde im März 2021 in der Auktion Modern and Contemporary African Art bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 4.788,00 (€ 5.624,67) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Houston Maludi mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Non Localité, 2019 beobachtet, die im Juni 2021 für EUR 14.950,00 versteigert wurde.
