Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Six works: Martina and Her Grandmother, Chicago by Dawoud Bey was sold in the Saturday@Phillips auction at Phillips in New York in October 2008. The price achieved of USD 4,750.00 (€ 3,745.47) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Dawoud Bey achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled #25 (Lake Erie and Sky) from Night Coming Tenderly, Black in October this year with an auction result of USD 50,800.00 (€ 48,069.64).
