The work Untitled (Oscar Wilde) (E. 273) by Félix González-Torres was sold in the Editions & Works on Paper auction at Phillips in New York in October 2021. The »bidding war« ended at USD 4,032.00 (€ 3,490.30), 61% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Félix González-Torres achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work "Untitled" (L.A.) in November 2015 with an auction result of USD 7,669,000.00 (€ 7,260,935.43).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 61 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Untitled (Oscar Wilde) (E. 273) von Félix González-Torres wurde im Oktober 2021 in der Auktion Editions & Works on Paper bei Phillips in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 4.032,00 (€ 3.490,30) und damit 61% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Félix González-Torres erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit "Untitled" (L.A.) im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 7.669.000,00 (€ 7.260.935,43).
