Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Josephine Meckseper could be acquired at Phillips in London in October 2014 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Contemporary Art Day Sale auction, the work Two works: (i) Untitled (Berlin Demonstration, Fire, Cops), 2002; (ii) Untitled (Berlin Demonstration, Police Brigade), 2002 changed hands for GBP 8,750.00 (€ 11,172.49) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Josephine Meckseper - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Untitled (Hammer And Sickle No. 2), which sold at auction in June 2012 for USD 50,000.00 (€ 39,469.53).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Josephine Meckseper konnte im Oktober 2014 bei Phillips in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Contemporary Art Day Sale wechselte die Arbeit Two works: (i) Untitled (Berlin Demonstration, Fire, Cops), 2002; (ii) Untitled (Berlin Demonstration, Police Brigade), 2002 für GBP 8.750,00 (€ 11.172,49) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 10.000,00 – 15.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Josephine Meckseper mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Untitled (Hammer And Sickle No. 2) beobachtet, die im Juni 2012 für USD 50.000,00 (€ 39.469,53) versteigert wurde.
