A top price for Helicopter Tjungurrayi - as previously expected

The work Minyurri Rockholes, 1998 by Helicopter Tjungurrayi was auctioned at Bonhams in Sydney in November last year. The price achieved of AUD 4,920.00 (€ 3,201.36) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Minyurri Rockholes, 1998 is the most expensive artwork by Helicopter Tjungurrayi that we have observed at auctions so far.
