Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Inverse Reverse Perverse by Cerith Wyn Evans was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2018, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 35,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 118,750.00 (€ 96,387.99). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Cerith Wyn Evans; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Inverse Reverse Perverse sold at auction in March 2021 with the realized price of USD 176,400.00 (€ 150,217.15).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Inverse Reverse Perverse von Cerith Wyn Evans im März 2018 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 35.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 118.750,00 (€ 96.387,99) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Cerith Wyn Evans; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Inverse Reverse Perverse im März 2021 mit dem Hammerpreis von USD 176.400,00 (€ 150.217,15).
