Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In July this year Phillips in London held the auction New Now, which included the work Tip by Gavin Turk. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 30,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 33,020.00 (€ 38,524.33). 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Juli diesen Jahres führte Phillips in London die Auktion New Now durch, in der auch die Arbeit Tip von Gavin Turk zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 30.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 33.020,00 (€ 38.524,33) einen neuen Besitzer. 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.
