Auction result well in line with expectations
In July last year Christies in London held the auction First Open: Post-War and Contemporary Art Online, which included the work Black Curl (CMY/Five Magnet: Irvine, California, March 26, 2010, Fujicolor Crystal Archive Super Type C, Em. No. 165-021, 06310) by Walead Beshty. It changed hands for a price of GBP 18,900.00 (€ 22,569.96) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Walead Beshty - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Fedex® Kraft Box© 2005 FEDEX 330504 REV 10/05 SSCC, Standard Overnight, Los Angeles-Beverly Hills, trk# 8726 7182 8553, date February 13-14 2012; Standard Overnight, San Francisco-Beverly Hills, trk# 8759 1171 4523, date January 29-30 2013; Interna, which sold at auction in June 2013 for GBP 68,500.00 (€ 79,951.77).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli letzten Jahres führte Christies in London die Auktion First Open: Post-War and Contemporary Art Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit Black Curl (CMY/Five Magnet: Irvine, California, March 26, 2010, Fujicolor Crystal Archive Super Type C, Em. No. 165-021, 06310) von Walead Beshty zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 18.900,00 (€ 22.569,96) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 15.000,00 – 20.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Walead Beshty mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Fedex® Kraft Box© 2005 FEDEX 330504 REV 10/05 SSCC, Standard Overnight, Los Angeles-Beverly Hills, trk# 8726 7182 8553, date February 13-14 2012; Standard Overnight, San Francisco-Beverly Hills, trk# 8759 1171 4523, date January 29-30 2013; Interna beobachtet, die im Juni 2013 für GBP 68.50
