This artwork by Gedi Sibony achieved an unexpectedly high price at Phillips in New York in November 2011. In the Contemporary Art Part II auction, the work Its Matter As Well As the Principle Over Which it Holds Sovereignty sold for USD 27,500.00 (€ 20,441.54) - well above the upper estimate of USD 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gedi Sibony - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Stumble Riser, which sold at auction in December last year for USD 47,880.00 (€ 44,756.03).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Gedi Sibony erzielte im November 2011 bei Phillips in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Contemporary Art Part II wurde die Arbeit Its Matter As Well As the Principle Over Which it Holds Sovereignty für USD 27.500,00 (€ 20.441,54) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 15.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Gedi Sibony mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Stumble Riser beobachtet, die im Dezember letzten Jahres für USD 47.880,00 (€ 44.756,03) versteigert wurde.
