Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Dump by Gavin Turk was sold in the Contemporary Art Day Auction auction at Sothebys in New York in May 2015. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 62,500.00 (€ 56,849.19) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gavin Turk - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Pile, which sold at auction in June 2015 for GBP 104,500.00 (€ 147,343.69).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Dump von Gavin Turk wurde im Mai 2015 in der Auktion Contemporary Art Day Auction bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 60.000,00 – 80.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 62.500,00 (€ 56.849,19) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Gavin Turk mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Pile beobachtet, die im Juni 2015 für GBP 104.500,00 (€ 147.343,69) versteigert wurde.
