A top price for Ghada Amer - as previously expected
The work Untitled (The Big Blue Expression Painting BBEP) by Ghada Amer was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2006. The price achieved of GBP 120,000.00 (€ 179,290.69) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 100,000.00 – 150,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Untitled (The Big Blue Expression Painting BBEP) is the most expensive artwork by Ghada Amer that we have observed at auctions so far.
