In May this year Christies in New York held the auction Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale, which included the work Carnations by Scott Kahn. The »bidding war« ended at USD 378,000.00 (€ 354,796.32), 51% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Scott Kahn - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work BIG HOUSE, HOMAGE TO AMERICA, which sold at auction in May last year for HKD 11,250,000.00 (€ 1,335,616.44).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 51 % übertroffen
Im Mai diesen Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Carnations von Scott Kahn zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 378.000,00 (€ 354.796,32) und damit 51% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Scott Kahn mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit BIG HOUSE, HOMAGE TO AMERICA beobachtet, die im Mai letzten Jahres für HKD 11.250.000,00 (€ 1.335.616,44) versteigert wurde.
