Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Banks Violette achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in March 2021. In the Contemporary Art auction, the work To Be Titled (Broken Record) sold for USD 17,640.00 (€ 15,021.72) - well above the upper estimate of USD 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Banks Violette achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work burnout (fadeaway), vol.1 in June 2008 with an auction result of GBP 205,250.00 (€ 259,442.88).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Banks Violette erzielte im März 2021 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Contemporary Art wurde die Arbeit To Be Titled (Broken Record) für USD 17.640,00 (€ 15.021,72) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 8.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Banks Violette erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit burnout (fadeaway), vol.1 im Juni 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 205.250,00 (€ 259.442,88).
