A top price for David Breuer-Weil - as previously expected
In October 2014 Sothebys in London held the auction Contemporary Art Day Auction, which included the work Alien by David Breuer-Weil. The price achieved of GBP 50,000.00 (€ 63,842.78) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Alien is the most expensive artwork by David Breuer-Weil that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Oktober 2014 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Contemporary Art Day Auction durch, in der auch die Arbeit Alien von David Breuer-Weil zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 50.000,00 (€ 63.842,78) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Alien das teuerste Kunstwerk von David Breuer-Weil, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
