Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2019 Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Art Online | New York, which included the work Why Would I Lie? by Amy Adler. It changed hands for a price of USD 1,875.00 (€ 1,684.64) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 1,000.00 – 2,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Amy Adler achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Mike in May 2003 with an auction result of USD 26,290.00 (€ 22,344.04).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2019 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Art Online | New York durch, in der auch die Arbeit Why Would I Lie? von Amy Adler zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 1.875,00 (€ 1.684,64) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.000,00 – 2.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Amy Adler erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Mike im Mai 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 26.290,00 (€ 22.344,04).
