Upper estimate price exceeded by 67 %.
The work Untitled (S.330, Hanging Asymmetrical Tied-Wire Eight- Branched, Closed Center, Free-Form Based on Nature) by Ruth Asawa was auctioned at Christies in New York in November 2018. It achieved a price of USD 300,000.00 (€ 264,947.45), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 67%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ruth Asawa achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled (S.387, Hanging Three Separate Layers of Three-Lobed Forms) in November 2019 with an auction result of USD 4,095,000.00 (€ 3,716,308.19).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 67 % übertroffen
