Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Hot Frost (Blueberry) by Helen Marten was sold in the Contemporary Art | London auction at Sothebys in London in December 2021. The price achieved of GBP 6,300.00 (€ 7,514.58) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Helen Marten - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Hostage Circumstance (Unauthorized Twin-Set), which sold at auction in February 2014 for GBP 20,000.00 (€ 24,264.81).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 6.300,00 (€ 7.514,58) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Helen Marten mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Hostage Circumstance (Unauthorized Twin-Set) beobachtet, die im Februar 2014 für GBP 20.000,00 (€ 24.264,81) versteigert wurde.
