Upper estimate price exceeded by 74 %.
In May 2014 Christies in New York held the auction Post-War and Contemporary Afternoon Session, which included the work Zinc-Steel Dipole (E/W) by Carl Andre. The »bidding war« ended at USD 209,000.00 (€ 153,225.81), 74% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Carl Andre achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Copper-Steel Alloy Square in October 2019 with an auction result of GBP 2,411,250.00 (€ 2,796,877.07).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 74 % übertroffen
Im Mai 2014 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Post-War and Contemporary Afternoon Session durch, in der auch die Arbeit Zinc-Steel Dipole (E/W) von Carl Andre zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 209.000,00 (€ 153.225,81) und damit 74% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Carl Andre erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Copper-Steel Alloy Square im Oktober 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 2.411.250,00 (€ 2.796.877,07).
