Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Meenie by Kenny Scharf was auctioned at Christies in New York in September last year. It changed hands for a price of USD 32,760.00 (€ 33,486.66) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Kenny Scharf achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work City of the Future in May last year with an auction result of USD 983,175.00 (€ 916,200.73).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Meenie von Kenny Scharf kam im September letzten Jahres bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 32.760,00 (€ 33.486,66) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 25.000,00 – 35.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Kenny Scharf erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit City of the Future im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 983.175,00 (€ 916.200,73).
