Sold at the lower estimate price
In November 2020 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction Post-War & Contemporary Art: Amsterdam, which included the work Lightness Of Being by Chris Levine. The result of EUR 60,000.00 was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of EUR 60,000.00 – 80,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Chris Levine - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Lightness Of Being, 2004, which sold at auction in April 2017 for GBP 187,500.00 (€ 222,659.48).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im November 2020 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art: Amsterdam durch, in der auch die Arbeit Lightness Of Being von Chris Levine zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von EUR 60.000,00 entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von EUR 60.000,00 – 80.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Chris Levine mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Lightness Of Being, 2004 beobachtet, die im April 2017 für GBP 187.500,00 (€ 222.659,48) versteigert wurde.
