Upper estimate price exceeded by 86 %.
This artwork by Yayoi Kusama achieved an unexpectedly high price at Phillips in New York in October 2021. In the Editions & Works on Paper auction, the work Amour pour Toujours (K. 282-291) sold for USD 466,200.00 (€ 403,566.48) - well above the upper estimate of USD 250,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yayoi Kusama achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pumpkin in April this year with an auction result of HKD 30,000,000.00 (€ 30,635,869.57).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 86 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Yayoi Kusama erzielte im Oktober 2021 bei Phillips in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Editions & Works on Paper wurde die Arbeit Amour pour Toujours (K. 282-291) für USD 466.200,00 (€ 403.566,48) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 250.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yayoi Kusama erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Pumpkin im April diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 30.000.000,00 (€ 30.635.869,57).
