Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Zombie (The Five Fingers #1-3) by Adam Helms was auctioned at Sothebys in London in October 2013, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 15,000.00 – 25,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 11,250.00 (€ 13,297.41). Other works by Adam Helms have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in September 2014 by the work Untitled Portrait (10) at USD 18,750.00 (€ 14,847.96).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Zombie (The Five Fingers #1-3) von Adam Helms im Oktober 2013 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 15.000,00 – 25.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 11.250,00 (€ 13.297,41) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von Adam Helms wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im September 2014 die Arbeit Untitled Portrait (10) mit USD 18.750,00 (€ 14.847,96).
