Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Shoes by Yayoi Kusama was sold in the A Century of Art: The Gerald Fineberg Collection Part II auction at Christies in New York in May this year. Here, the upper estimate of USD 300,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 327,600.00 (€ 307,490.14). 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 leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Shoes von Yayoi Kusama wurde im Mai diesen Jahres in der Auktion A Century of Art: The Gerald Fineberg Collection Part II bei Christies in New York versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 300.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 327.600,00 (€ 307.490,14) einen neuen Besitzer. 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).
