Auction result well in line with expectations
The work I. Untitled (Green Dirt My Body) Ii. Gravity Iii. Untitled (Body, Green Green Green...) Iv. Untitled (Body) by Wes Mills was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in July 2020. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 1,000.00 – 2,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 1,125.00 (€ 955.50) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wes Mills - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sharp Things in the Grass, which sold at auction in January 2011 for USD 3,000.00 (€ 2,187.39).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit I. Untitled (Green Dirt My Body) Ii. Gravity Iii. Untitled (Body, Green Green Green...) Iv. Untitled (Body) von Wes Mills kam im Juli 2020 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 1.000,00 – 2.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 1.125,00 (€ 955,50) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Wes Mills mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Sharp Things in the Grass beobachtet, die im Januar 2011 für USD 3.000,00 (€ 2.187,39) versteigert wurde.
