Auction result well in line with expectations
The work 228.5º Arc X 5 by Bernar Venet was sold in the Post-War to Present auction at Christies in London in September this year. The price achieved of USD 226,800.00 (€ 214,285.71) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 200,000.00 – 300,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Bernar Venet - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work 221.5° Arc x 15, which sold at auction in November 2021 for USD 877,000.00 (€ 777,000.09).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit 228.5º Arc X 5 von Bernar Venet wurde im September diesen Jahres in der Auktion Post-War to Present bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 226.800,00 (€ 214.285,71) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 200.000,00 – 300.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Bernar Venet mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit 221.5° Arc x 15 beobachtet, die im November 2021 für USD 877.000,00 (€ 777.000,09) versteigert wurde.
