OLAFUR ELIASSON (B. 1967)
Untitled (Iceland Series), 2006
c-print
24 1/4 x 36 1/4 in.
61.6 x 92.1 cm.
Tanya Bonakdar Gallery, New York | Acquired directly from the above by the present owner

Upper estimate price exceeded by 79 %.

This artwork by Olafur Eliasson achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in Los Angeles in September 2021. In the Post-War & Contemporary Art X Made in California auction, the work Untitled (Iceland Series), 2006 sold for USD 8,925.00 (€ 7,709.25) - well above the upper estimate of USD 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Olafur Eliasson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Fivefold Eye in October 2007 with an auction result of GBP 748,500.00 (€ 1,074,895.25).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 79 % übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Olafur Eliasson erzielte im September 2021 bei Bonhams in Los Angeles einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art X Made in California wurde die Arbeit Untitled (Iceland Series), 2006 für USD 8.925,00 (€ 7.709,25) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Olafur Eliasson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Fivefold Eye im Oktober 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 748.500,00 (€ 1.074.895,25).
