In October 2020 Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Art, which included the work She Wears Lace On Her Right Shoulder by Theaster Gates. The »bidding war« ended at USD 151,200.00 (€ 129,818.84), 68% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Theaster Gates have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A Flag For The Least Of Them in December 2018 with an auction result of USD 807,000.00 (€ 704,434.36).

Im Oktober 2020 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit She Wears Lace On Her Right Shoulder von Theaster Gates zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 151.200,00 (€ 129.818,84) und damit 68% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Theaster Gates auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A Flag For The Least Of Them im Dezember 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 807.000,00 (€ 704.434,36).
