Artwork auctioned at seven times the upper estimate price
When this work without title by Beverly Pepper was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in July 2020, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 6,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than seven times as high at USD 43,750.00 (€ 37,158.15). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Beverly Pepper - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Ligne Scolpite II, which sold at auction in September 2018 for USD 93,750.00 (€ 80,665.98).
Kunstwerk zum Siebenfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit ohne Titel von Beverly Pepper im Juli 2020 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 6.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 43.750,00 (€ 37.158,15) mehr als siebenmal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Beverly Pepper mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Ligne Scolpite II beobachtet, die im September 2018 für USD 93.750,00 (€ 80.665,98) versteigert wurde.
