The work The Dog (Self Portrait As A Dog) by Gilles Barbier was sold in the Contemporary Art Day Auction auction at Sothebys in New York in November 2015. The »bidding war« ended at USD 30,000.00 (€ 28,403.71), 50% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gilles Barbier - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Orgue A Pet, L'Effort, 1996, which sold at auction in January 2008 for EUR 61,960.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um 50 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Dog (Self Portrait As A Dog) von Gilles Barbier wurde im November 2015 in der Auktion Contemporary Art Day Auction bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 30.000,00 (€ 28.403,71) und damit 50% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Gilles Barbier mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Orgue A Pet, L'Effort, 1996 beobachtet, die im Januar 2008 für EUR 61.960,00 versteigert wurde.
