Auction result well in line with expectations
The work City 5 by Mike Kelley was auctioned at Phillips in New York in December 2020. It changed hands for a price of USD 88,200.00 (€ 72,117.74) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 70,000.00 – 90,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mike Kelley achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Memory Ware Flat 1 in May 2016 with an auction result of USD 3,301,000.00 (€ 2,964,526.27).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit City 5 von Mike Kelley kam im Dezember 2020 bei Phillips in New York zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 88.200,00 (€ 72.117,74) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 70.000,00 – 90.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mike Kelley erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Memory Ware Flat 1 im Mai 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 3.301.000,00 (€ 2.964.526,27).
