Sold at the upper estimate price
The work Cat Litter by Robert Gober was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in May 2019. The auction ended at the price of USD 150,000.00 (€ 134,541.21), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of USD 100,000.00 – 150,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Gober achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work without title in May 2018 with an auction result of USD 7,287,500.00 (€ 6,244,644.39).
Zuschlag beim oberen Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Cat Litter von Robert Gober kam im Mai 2019 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 150.000,00 (€ 134.541,21) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 100.000,00 – 150.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Gober erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ohne Titel im Mai 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 7.287.500,00 (€ 6.244.644,39).
