Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Chris Burden could be acquired at Phillips in New York in October 2016 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Evening & Day Editions auction, the work Two World War I Tanks changed hands for USD 1,125.00 (€ 1,026.27) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 1,200.00 – 1,800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Chris Burden achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Warship in May 2016 with an auction result of USD 502,000.00 (€ 450,830.71).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Chris Burden konnte im Oktober 2016 bei Phillips in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Evening & Day Editions wechselte die Arbeit Two World War I Tanks für USD 1.125,00 (€ 1.026,27) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.200,00 – 1.800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Chris Burden erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Warship im Mai 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 502.000,00 (€ 450.830,71).
