Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Zwei Fluxus-Objekte: Grüne Geige (Two Fluxus Objects: Green Violin) (S. 135) by Joseph Beuys was auctioned at Phillips in London in January 2024. The price achieved of GBP 15,240.00 (€ 25,506.55) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Joseph Beuys achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Zeitpunkt: Das Massaker von Muenchen (Point of time: The Massacre of Munich) in February 2016 with an auction result of GBP 854,500.00 (€ 1,094,936.23).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Zwei Fluxus-Objekte: Grüne Geige (Two Fluxus Objects: Green Violin) (S. 135) von Joseph Beuys kam im Januar 2024 bei Phillips in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 15.240,00 (€ 25.506,55) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 12.000,00 – 18.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Joseph Beuys erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Zeitpunkt: Das Massaker von Muenchen (Point of time: The Massacre of Munich) im Februar 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 854.500,00 (€ 1.094.936,23).
