Upper estimate price exceeded by 35 %.
In October last year Christies in London held the auction Post-War and Contemporary Art Day Sale, which included the work Living Series: By Your Response to Danger… by Jenny Holzer. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 94,500.00 (€ 110,091.45), 35% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jenny Holzer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Arno Pair in May last year with an auction result of USD 1,560,000.00 (€ 1,453,732.18).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 35 % übertroffen
Im Oktober letzten Jahres führte Christies in London die Auktion Post-War and Contemporary Art Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Living Series: By Your Response to Danger… von Jenny Holzer zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 94.500,00 (€ 110.091,45) und damit 35% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jenny Holzer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Arno Pair im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.560.000,00 (€ 1.453.732,18).
