Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Selections from Truisms: Abuse of Power… by Jenny Holzer was auctioned at Christies in New York in November this year. Here, the upper estimate of USD 500,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 567,000.00 (€ 519,801.98). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jenny Holzer - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Arno Pair, which sold at auction in May last year for USD 1,560,000.00 (€ 1,453,732.18).
