Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
The work Slooshying The Sluice Of Lovely Sounds. Oh, It Was Gorgeousness And Gorgeosity Made Flesh. by Firelei Báez was worth USD 56,700.00 (€ 48,682.06) to a buyer in October 2020. This price was achieved in the auction Contemporary Curated at Sothebys in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 12,000.00 many times over. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Firelei Báez; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Demetrea (from the series Geographic Delay) sold at auction in May last year with the realized price of USD 94,500.00 (€ 88,062.62).
