Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In November 2012 Christies in London held the auction Post War and Contemporary Art 1990 To Now, which included the work Thinker by Dana Frankfort. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 3,500.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 4,000.00 (€ 4,927.59). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Dana Frankfort - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Despair, which sold at auction in May 2007 for USD 15,600.00 (€ 11,595.93).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im November 2012 führte Christies in London die Auktion Post War and Contemporary Art 1990 To Now durch, in der auch die Arbeit Thinker von Dana Frankfort zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 3.500,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 4.000,00 (€ 4.927,59) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Dana Frankfort mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Despair beobachtet, die im Mai 2007 für USD 15.600,00 (€ 11.595,93) versteigert wurde.
