In December this year Christies in Milan held the auction 20th/21st Century Milan Online Sale, which included the work Throwing Three Balls in the Air to Get a Straight Line (Best of Thirty-Six Attempts) by John Baldessari. The »bidding war« ended at EUR 11,340.00 62% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Baldessari achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Commissioned Painting: A Painting By Edgar Transue in May 2014 with an auction result of USD 2,517,000.00 (€ 1,845,307.92).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 62 % übertroffen
Im Dezember diesen Jahres führte Christies in Mailand die Auktion 20th/21st Century Milan Online Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Throwing Three Balls in the Air to Get a Straight Line (Best of Thirty-Six Attempts) von John Baldessari zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von EUR 11.340,00 und damit 62% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Baldessari erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Commissioned Painting: A Painting By Edgar Transue im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.517.000,00 (€ 1.845.307,92).
