Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Two works: (i) Untitled; (ii) Set Theory by Francis Alÿs was auctioned at Phillips in 7 - in December this year. It changed hands for a price of USD 11,430.00 (€ 10,332.67) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Francis Alÿs achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Study For The Last Clown in June 2007 with an auction result of GBP 288,000.00 (€ 427,377.51).
