Auction result misses estimated price range
In November last year a collector was able to acquire the work Untitled (Skin) by Kiki Smith for USD 100,000.00 (€ 96,871.06). This price was achieved in the auction Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 150,000.00 – 200,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Kiki Smith - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work without title, which sold at auction in November 2005 for USD 284,800.00 (€ 241,560.64).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im November letzten Jahres konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Untitled (Skin) von Kiki Smith für USD 100.000,00 (€ 96.871,06) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 150.000,00 – 200.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Kiki Smith mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit ohne Titel beobachtet, die im November 2005 für USD 284.800,00 (€ 241.560,64) versteigert wurde.
