Auction result well in line with expectations

In May last year Sothebys in New York held the auction The Now Evening Auction, which included the work The Trip by Adrian Ghenie. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 4,000,000.00 – 6,000,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 4,500,000.00 (€ 4,193,458.21) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Adrian Ghenie - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Pie Fight Interior 12, which sold at auction in May last year for HKD 81,060,000.00 (€ 9,623,561.64).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Mai letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion The Now Evening Auction durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Trip von Adrian Ghenie zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 4.000.000,00 – 6.000.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 4.500.000,00 (€ 4.193.458,21) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Adrian Ghenie mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Pie Fight Interior 12 beobachtet, die im Mai letzten Jahres für HKD 81.060.000,00 (€ 9.623.561,64) versteigert wurde.
